BEST CROCK-POT OVERNIGHT HASHBROWN CASSEROLE
A few years back she made these awesome hash brown potatoes in her Crock Pot. They cooked up really nicely into a creamy casserole that you just had to have seconds of. I remember the top being crisp and the inside being creamy and flavorful.
I asked her for her recipe and she wouldnât give it to me. She said that it was âtop secret.â Can you believe that nonsense? Little sisters! So, I had to set out on a journey of hash brown searches to find the recipe myself.
Fortunately, I found one that tastes exactly like my sisterâs. I have no idea if this is how she makes hers but it does taste very close. If you need a side dish or quick casserole for a potluck meal or family dinner give this slow cooker hash brown casserole a shot. Itâs very easy to make, tastes great, and feeds a crowd.
I really like how creamy these potatoes come out. The top is crisp but the inside is so soft and delicious! Get creative with your casserole and toss in a few things that you might like such as onions, different seasonings, and cream cheese. In fact, you can use a variety of cheeses if you want. I sometimes add in green chiles. Enjoy!
Ainât that the truth! I think hash brown casserole is super easy to whip up, especially in the slow cooker. When I need a side dish and I need one now I will always turn to this recipe.
