Make this easy and creamy Cheesy Funeral Potatoes Casserole, a popular hashbrown casserole perfect for potlucks, holidays, or any gathering where you need a crowd-pleasing side dish.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (32 ounce) bag frozen shredded hash brown potatoes, thawed
  • 1 (10.5 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup
  • 1 (10.5 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese, plus extra for topping
  • 1/2 cup melted butter
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the thawed hash brown potatoes, cream of chicken soup, cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, 1 cup of cheddar cheese, melted butter, chopped onion (if using), salt, and pepper. Mix gently until everything is just combined. Do not overmix.
  3. Spread the potato mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
  4. Sprinkle an additional layer of shredded cheddar cheese over the top of the casserole.
  5. Bake for 45 to 55 minutes, or until the casserole is hot throughout and the cheese topping is golden brown and bubbly.
  6. Let the cheesy potato casserole rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • You can prepare this dish the night before. Cover the unbaked casserole tightly with foil and refrigerate. Add about 10 to 15 minutes to the baking time if cooking straight from the refrigerator.
  • For extra flavor, add 1/2 cup of crumbled cooked bacon or 1/4 cup of diced green chiles to the potato mixture.
  • This recipe is a wonderful holiday side dish, especially for Thanksgiving dinner.
