I doubled this recipe. I used 5-6 average size white potatoes. I peeled, then sliced and halved and quartered the slices so they were not large, I used 1 can cream of celery soup & one can cream of chicken soup. All other ingredients were doubled. For the topping I used a Ruffles potato chips. I crushed them up fine and mixed them with the butter. I then sprinkled them on top and put the potatoes back in the oven under the broiler long enough to make the topping crispy brown. Maybe a minute or so. These potatoes were excellent and I will definitely make them again. Also, because everyone said theynwould take longer to cook, I put them in the microwave for 15-20 min before I put them in the oven to take the edge off of how long they would need to cook. I then cooked them in the oven for 40 min, finishing with the broiler to make the topping crispy. This recipe is very kid, teenager, anybody friendly :-)

Great recipe, I do not know how anyone could of messed this up. I cut up the potatoes instead of shredding them and followed the recipe to a tee however I did leave them in longer to cook as some others had suggested. Instead of the corn flakes I used the dried onions and soaked them in butter with garlic, salt and pepper. Then after 20 minutes back in the oven I put on the parsley and did 4 minutes on broil just to crisp up the top and it was awesome!

My family refused to eat these. The sour cream made this sour with little other flavor. I son threw them out - probably to save me the heartbreak of the waste.

We tweaked this recipe a little. I don't like cream of celery and all I had on hand was Cheddar Cheese Soup so that is what we used. We substituted the green onions with dehydrated onions and the potatoes with frozen, thawed hash browns. Also, we added about a Tbsp of Worchestershire and about 1/2 tsp each of salt and pepper. Turned out delicious! This is a keeper for any meal, any day of the week and I'm thinking great for potlucks at work!

This is more of a hashbrown casserole vs. au gratin potatoes. I used frozen shredded potatoes, which I thawed before using. I also used cream of mushroom soup since that's all I had on hand and breadcrumbs instead of cornflakes (we don't ever eat cornflakes, and I didn't want to buy them just for the topping). These were pretty good, but tasted more like a casserole vs. potatoes.

I followed the recipe to a "T" and after over 2 hours of baking, the potatoes were still not done.

I prepared these on Thanksgiving and they were gone before my husband could even get any. They were easy and everyone loved them.

For a Thanksgiving potluck, my boyfriend wanted to make a cheesy potato dish. I found this recipe for him and he cooked it all by himself. I didn't have a hand in it, but from observation if a man who usually makes Mac & Cheese or Ramen can make this, ANYONE can make this. It turned out sooo cheesy, delicious, and this is going to be one of those dishes that we will make again for a potluck style gathering, most likely! Thanks for a great recipe.

First off, it took 90 minutes for the potatoes to cook through. But even then the taste was awful. The cream of celery soup was not a good flavor for this dish. I ended up throwing out almost all of it. I will not be making this again.
