Easy Cheesy Potatoes

Always on the hunt for easy and delicious side dishes I decided to give "funeral potatoes" a go and OH MY WORD they were so good.   I served them with meatloaf (yes, ma'am) and Luke actually ate them for breakfast the next morning ;) hahaha 

Here's What You'll Need...

- 30 oz frozen hash brown potatoes (I used shredded, but you could use the diced ones)

- 2 cups sour cream

- one 10.5 ounce can cream of chicken soup

- 10 tablespoons butter, melted (

- 1 teaspoon salt

- pinch of pepper

- 1 teaspoon dried minced onion

- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

- 2 cups corn flakes cereal

Here's What You'll Do...

1) Allow the potatoes to thaw in your fridge overnight (if you forget you can spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet and warm them in the oven at 200 degrees for about 20 mins)

2) Preheat the oven to 350 degrees

3) Combine the sour cream, cream of chicken soup, 6 tablespoons of the melted butter, salt, pepper and dried onion in a bowl.  Mix well.

4) Add the potatoes and shredded cheese and stir to combine.  Spoon the mixture into a single layer in a 9x13" pan. 

5) Add the cornflakes to a big ziplock bag and crush them gently.  

6) Add the last 4 tablespoons of melted butter to the crushed cornflakes and sprinkle on top of the potato mixture.

7) Bake uncovered at 350 degrees for 40-50 minutes.

This is the only picture I took of the final product but TRUST ME!  They're on my menu for next week with flank steak and I'm already excited ;)

HAPPY Thursday, friends!!!
