This is a little different--it has Mozzarella instead of Cheddar. But it is VERY yummy! My DH's family requests this when we come home for the holidays or family gatherings.

Tips:

- For a crispy topping, use Panko breadcrumbs instead of crushed crackers. - To add creaminess to the casserole, stir in 1/2 cup of sour cream or heavy cream before baking. - If you don't have time to boil the potatoes, you can use frozen hash browns instead. Just thaw them before adding them to the casserole. - For a cheesy casserole, add 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese or mozzarella cheese to the potato mixture before baking. - To add a pop of flavor, stir in 1/4 cup of chopped fresh herbs, such as parsley, thyme, or rosemary, before baking. - For a more flavorful casserole, use chicken or vegetable broth instead of water to cook the potatoes. - To make the casserole ahead of time, assemble it and then refrigerate it for up to 24 hours before baking. When you're ready to bake it, let it come to room temperature for 30 minutes before putting it in the oven.
