It was wonderful! I used chip dip instead of sour cream since I needed to use it up. Will definitely make again!

Fix and forget! Excellent recipe. Cut leftovers in squares and froze in non-stick aluminum foil. When I made meatloaf I put them in the oven for another easy meal.

This was not a hit in our house...was very bland and ended up using it as a base for soup the following day, so wasn't a complete loss. Will be sticking with the old recipe on this one.

Very delicious casserole! I added dill as a flavoring which was a nice flavor.

Not a bad recipe. I used real shredded potatoes, which might be why they didn't cook through well. There was something missing in the flavoring, but still a great side dish.

I have a very similar version of this recipe I use on a regular basis. So, so, so good. The only difference is that my version uses Cream of Chicken soup and the topping is 2 cups of crushed corn flakes mixed with 1/4 cup of melted butter. Now, if you really want to make this recipe WOW, substitute a bag of frozen sweet potato fries for the hash browns. You will have to chop them once thawed so they are hash brown size. Put a pinch of cayenne pepper in the mixture too. Fantastic variation!! Or, stick to the regular potatoes and add some fresh bacon bits. Mmmmmmm. One other note - make ahead in the pan - don't bake but freeze instead. Take out of the freezer, defrost and bake - Wonderful! I often split this recipe into two batches for the freezer.

This was great!!!! However, I made a few changes. I didn't have corn flakes, so I used crisy rice cereal, was just as yummy. I saved back about 1 Tbsp of melted butter and mixed the crispy rice cereal with it. I used cream of onion soup, and omitted the chopped onion. Double the recipe and bake for about 1 hour and 15min for a larger crowd. Thanks Jill!!!

Thanks so much for this recipe! I've had this type of dish all my life, but some better than others. I looked around for one with just right combination of flavors I love. What I did different: used cream of chicken (cheapest store brand), butter (not marg), 1/4 cup cream cheese, diced potatoes, 2 cups colby jack shredded cheese, 1/3 can of fried onions in the mix and then I used another 1/3 can of fried onions with equal parts corn flakes crushed together for topping. Oil in the onions helped the corn flakes crisp up nice. Rave reviews - of course it wasn't low fat, but I did use a light sour cream. Very yummy. This ones a keeper. Thanks to others for suggested modifications too.
