CROCK POT CHEESY POTATOES

Fluffier than the shredded cheesy potatoes. For added zing, I like to use the "O'Brien" variety of frozen hash browns that comes with bits of red pepper and onion in it. For super-fast prep, use dried minced onion and the prepackaged shredded cheese.

CROCK POT CHEESY SCALLOPED POTATOES AND HAM



Crock Pot Cheesy Scalloped Potatoes and Ham image

We made the Kicked Up creamy version of this recipe and that is just exactly what it was. We like that this is cooked in the Crock Pot... makes for a very easy meal. Great if you have leftover holiday ham. The cheese sauce is just enough... it's so good!

Time 4h15m

Number Of Ingredients 13

10 medium Idaho potatoes; peeled
8 oz pkg diced ham, or cut your own
1/2 c chopped onion (I use frozen-no more tears!!)
1 can(s) Campbell's cheddar cheese soup
1 can(s) cream of mushroom soup, light
1 /2 c cheddar cheese, shredded
1 tsp dry mustard and white pepper
KICKED UP CREAMY VERSION
2 Tbsp butter or margarine
4 Tbsp flour
1 can(s) fat free evaporated milk
1-1 1/2 c shredded swiss cheese
paprika, just a sprinkle

Steps:

  • 1. Regular version: In a large bowl mix the two soups and feel free to add a tiny splash of milk, then add the onion, hams and seasonings. Slice the potatoes in half and then into slices; add to soup and mix well. Put into the crock pot, and add a sprinkle of paprika. Cook on high 4 hours or low 7-8 hours. Sprinkle the cheddar on top during last 10 min.
  • 2. Kicked Up version: Place peeled potatoes in a bowl of water. Melt the butter over med-high heat, cook and stir a few mins. Then whisk in the flour and stir. Add 1 cup of the evaporated milk and stir over med-high heat until bubbly and thickened; you may need the whole can.
  • 3. Stir in the cheddar soup, Swiss and cheddar cheese and seasonings, stir till melted and creamy. (You will not use the mushroom soup in this version :)
  • 4. Slice potatoes in half and then into slices. Place in a large bowl, along with onions and ham; mix well. Place in crock pot and cook the same as regular version. Let stand 10 min prior to serving.
  • 5. Some people like to layer the ingredients, instead of mixing in a bowl. I like it all mixed so the flavors marry. Use your preference!

CROCK POT CHEESY POTATOES & HAM



Crock Pot Cheesy Potatoes & Ham image

My husband doesn't like sour cream in his cheesy potatoes, so I was experimenting with different combinations to get the creamy texture without using sour cream. Mission accomplished with this great side dish!

Provided by Jenni K

Categories     Potatoes

Time 4h20m

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 lb frozen, shredded hashbrowns
3 c diced, cooked ham
1 c shredded cheddar cheese
8 oz cream cheese
1/2 c diced onion (optional)
4 Tbsp butter or margarine
1 c milk
2 tsp chicken bouillon, dissolved in 3/4 cup boiling water
1 can(s) cream of mushroom soup
1/2 tsp minced garlic
pepper

Steps:

  • 1. Put everything but cream cheese and butter in a crock pot. Mix well. Cut up cream cheese and butter into cubes. Dot over top of potatoes.
  • 2. Cook on High for 2 hours, stirring periodically. Reduce heat to low and cook for 2 more hours. Can also cook this in the oven at 325 for 1 1/2 hours.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Use firm, waxy potatoes like Yukon Gold or red potatoes that will hold their shape well during cooking. Avoid starchy potatoes like russet potatoes, which tend to fall apart.
  • Cut the potatoes evenly: This will ensure that they cook evenly. If the potatoes are cut into different sizes, some pieces may be overcooked while others are still undercooked.
  • Don't overcrowd the crock pot: Make sure there is enough space for the potatoes to cook evenly. If the crock pot is too crowded, the potatoes will not cook properly.
  • Add enough liquid: The potatoes should be covered with liquid, but not submerged. If there is not enough liquid, the potatoes will dry out and become tough.
  • Cook on low heat: This will allow the potatoes to cook slowly and evenly. Cooking on high heat will result in overcooked potatoes that are dry and tough.
  • Stir the potatoes occasionally: This will help to prevent them from sticking together and ensure that they cook evenly.
  • Add cheese at the end: Adding cheese too early will cause it to melt and become rubbery. Stir in the cheese during the last 15 minutes of cooking for the best results.

Conclusion:

Cheesy potatoes are a delicious and easy side dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for potlucks, picnics, and holiday gatherings. With a few simple ingredients and a slow cooker, you can easily make a batch of cheesy potatoes that will be enjoyed by everyone.
