Cheesy Potato Casserole
Hands down my favorite holiday recipe is cheesy potato casserole. Every Christmas Day since I can remember the table has always been filled with delicious food, but these potatoes have been the first to go. They are my mom’s specialty. Recipe below.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup melted butter 1 medium onion, chopped 1 can (10.75 ounce size) creamed soup (e.g., cream of celery, onion, or chicken) 8 ounces shredded sharp cheddar 1 container (8 ounce size) sour cream 1 package (32 ounce size) shredded frozen hash brown potatoes 1/2 cup butter, melted 2 cups crushed corn flakes
