The Best One-Bowl Hash Brown Potato Casserole image

My family loves this and I make it on regular rotation, it's so easy to make just mix everything in one large bowl then bake, you may prepare the complete casserole and refrigerate until ready to bake, which makes this a perfect potluck dish! --- I have even made this using frozen french fries that I cut up into small pieces when I had no hash browns on hand and can also be made using cooked cubed potatoes --- cream of chicken soup may be used in place of mushroom soup, you may even throw in some chopped cooked ham or chicken also, I most always increase this by using two cans of soup, 1-1/2 cups sour cream and using half a 5-pound bag of hash browns --- you will love this! :)

THE BEST HASH BROWN CASSEROLE

This is a staple in my house. Its super easy to put together and is a crowd pleaser every time! This dish is great for large gatherings, holidays, and everyday weeknight meals. I usually use a can of cream of mushroom and chicken soup but occasionally I can't find any. Cream of mushroom by itself works just fine.

Time 1h15m

Yield 1 10, 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 lbs frozen southern style hash brown potatoes
8 ounces shredded colby-monterey jack cheese
1 (10 ounce) can campbell's cream of chicken and mushroom soup
1/2 large onion, diced
2 tablespoons Oscar Mayer real bacon bits
1/2 cup melted butter
1/2 cup sour cream
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • 1. Mix all ingredients together in large bowl.
  • 2. Place in greased 9x13 glass dish.
  • 3. Bake at 350 for an hour or until center is bubbly and top is slightly brown.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Potatoes: Select starchy potatoes like Russets or Yukon Golds for crispy hash browns. They hold their shape better during the cooking process.
  • Shred the Potatoes Properly: Use a grater with large holes to create long, thin shreds. This will help achieve a crispy texture.
  • Season Generously: Don't be shy with the salt and pepper. These basic seasonings bring out the potato's flavor and enhance the overall taste.
  • Use Butter or Oil: Butter adds a rich flavor, while oil provides a crispy texture. You can use a combination of both for the best results.
  • Cook Over Medium Heat: Cooking the hash browns over medium heat allows them to cook evenly without burning.
  • Don't Crowd the Pan: Make sure there's enough space between the hash browns in the pan to ensure even cooking and crispy edges.
  • Flip Only Once: Avoid flipping the hash browns multiple times during cooking. This breaks them up and prevents them from getting crispy.
  • Top with Your Favorites: Once cooked, top your hash browns with your favorite toppings like cheese, bacon, eggs, or vegetables for a hearty and flavorful meal.

Conclusion:

Hash browns are a versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
