If there was ever a time for comfort food it’s now. More and more people are baking and making their own favorites from scratch during the pandemic quarantine.
One of my favorite comfort foods is my potato casserole, which has been passed down in my family for years. I usually make it at Christmas and Easter, but it can be made anytime. My favorite thing about it is, that is tastes better the second day and it can be frozen to serve later.
I used my favorite Hy-Vee southern style hash browns, cream of mushroom soup , and shredded cheddar cheese. It’s simple to make and is a meal in itself.
Here’s the recipe if you’d like to make my Christmas casserole. I know you’ll love it!
