Crockpot Cheesy Hash Brown Casserole

Darryl requests my Mom’s Cheesy Hash Brown Casserole all the time.  It is one of his all-time favorites. But in the summertime, who wants to heat up the house using the oven? Not this gal. So I decided to try and switch things up a bit, and make a Crockpot Cheesy Hash Brown Casserole.

Perfection! The same yummy taste without a unbearably hot house. Darryl thought I should put a warning on this recipe.  WARNING: It is impossible to only eat one serving of these cheesy spuds 🙂

Not only is this  Crockpot Cheesy Hash Brown Casserole a great side dish, surprise your family with this cheesy goodness for breakfast! Pair with some protein packed eggs and fresh fruit…..BAM! A breakfast your family will be talking about for weeks.

  1. I just put it in the crockpot but used frozen potatoes so the sour cream and soup and cheese didnt mix so well. I wish I had thought to mix those together first and then put it into the big bowl. Will it all come out right? there were hunks of frozen sour cream and potato when i tried to stir. HOPE it works together!
