This was really good. Only changed two things, I put about 3/4 of the sour cream and added more cheese on top.

The first time I made this I took it to work for a "potato bar" potluck lunch. Everyone LOVED it! I used 2 cups shredded cheese and reduced the sour cream to 3/4 of the 16 oz. container. Will definately make this again!

This was to die for. Anyone who gave this a bad review (vitalismom) did something wrong. And besides that, such a negative review, shows much immaturity on "their" part. Try this recipe and if you feel you need to ad anything else, do it. I will certainly be preparing this again. My entire family cleaned out the dsh. Thanks to Maureen for sharing!

This recipe is quite delicious if made properly. I have a similar recipe tht only calls for 1-2 cans of condensed cream of 'something' soup. Depends on the amount of hashbrowns you use. My favorite is cream of mushroom. I don't add too much milk or dried dill, however I do add a pinch of cayenne pepper, and some seasoning salt instead of regular salt. I also mix in a cup of grated sharp or old cheddar cheese into the hashbrown mix, as well as a generous amount of cheese on the top. I have yet to come across any of my guests to complain about this dish. Usually I am asked for the recipe. By the way, thanks Maureenburr for sharing your mum's recipe. That makes it even more special

I have made a very similar casserole for many years. I use a small package of Velveeta instead of shreded cheese, which makes it very creamy. I also heat the potatoes in the microwave for about 15-20 minutes, so they are about half-cooked before adding the other ingredients. Otherwise, the casserole tends to cook around the edges before the center is done.

For anyone new to this recipe, add the cheese with the rest of the ingredients, put your mixture into a greased baking dish, then sprinkle the top with extra grated cheddar, as well as a nice sprinkle of grated parmesan cheese. Bake as directed and be sure to check your potatoes at the one hour mark. Not all ovens bake the same so a quick check at one hour could save you from burnt potatoes. Once your potatoes are baked, you will have a wonderful tasty side dish to please your family!

In the south we call this Hashbrown Potato Casserole. Been making this holiday staple for years! I use cream of mushroom soup (just 1 can) and no dill. I mix everything together including the chesse, melt 1 stick of butter or margarine, put 1/2 in the casserole and use the other half to "grease" the baking dish. YUM! My 2 grown children request this everytime we get together!

I have made a version of this for years, but I use a can of cream of mushroom & cream of chicken to give it some flavor. I also add a stick of melted butter. I then fry up some breadcrumbs with butter and put them on top of the cheese (and i mix some cheese in with the potatoes). The breadcrumbs give it some texture and added flavor. There are times when I've had leftover chicken or leftover bacon, and i chop it up and add it too. This is a very good recipe to change it up in many ways

I have made this recipe for over 25 years. It alwaz a favorite at potlucks or when we have people over for dinner. Definitely the cream of chicken soup puts this dish over the top! (Use instead of the cream of celery.) Boiled grated red potatoes if you have the time, instead of hash browns and chopped green onions instead of the regular onion. No dill weed in mine, although I like dill weed. This dish is great with just about any meat. It is also great reheted with eggs in the morning! I crumble up almond or honey nut flakes for the topping.
