I am finally to the point in this pregnancy that cooking sounds GOOD again! I have some yummy things to share and hope I can get back on the meal bandwagon!
I have heard this dish called a million other things, but being from back West, this always showed up at funerals and my family (along with many others) have always called it funeral potatoes. :) We love to eat it with ham--but it works as a meatless main dish when we need.(and my kids GOBBLE this up every time)
2 cans of cream of mushroom or cream of chicken soup (or one of each)
2 C sour cream
1 1/2 C Grated cheddar cheese
1/3 C Onions (or you can use onion salt--just use a bit less than 1/3 C)
1/2 C Milk
Mix all these ingredients together (I actually just mix them right in the 9x13 pan to save myself from cleaning another dish) and then add:
1 package of frozen has browns***
Stir well.
Melt:
6 TBSP butter
***the original recipe calls for 6 potatoes, peeled, cooked and grated...but I have to go for time-saving simple shortcuts, so I just use the frozen potatoes now. :)
and add to:
2 C crushed cornflakes
(sometimes I like to add extra crunch so I will adjust accordingly)
Sprinkle over potato mixture and bake at 350 for 30 min.
