Going to potluck tomorrow need a easy and tasty recipe.?

This one can be assembled the night before and baked when ready. It's really good and super easy to make.











Overnight Hashed Brown Potato Casserole (Cheese Potatoes)








Ingredients:





(8 servings)


2 lb Frozen hashed brown potatoes


1/4 lb Butter


1 pt Sour cream


1 can Mushroom soup


8 oz Cheddar cheese; shredded


1 Onion; grated or 1 T. instant minced onion


3/4 c Milk* (optional)








Instructions:





Cut butter into potatoes. Mix rest of ingredients together; pour over top of potatoes. Toss. *1/4 - 3/4 c. milk can be used in place of one-half of the sour cream. It will make a moister casserole, if desired. Bake in a 13x9'; pan at 350 for 1/2 hr covered and an additional 1/2 hr. uncovered. I have used Cheddar Cheese soup, but reduce the butter as it will be greasy with both. I also put additional shredded cheese on top during the second half hour of baking. Doubles well. Can be refrigerated overnight after mixing all together.

I make a baked brie that goes over pretty darn well when I take it along.





1 small round brie


1 pkg of PepperageFarms(sp) Puff Pastry ';Sheets';


(or any other puff pastry sheets)


Raspberry jam/preserves (or other fav)


shaved almonds/slices (optional)





Using a veggie peeler remove all white on all of wheel. Do this while it's chilled it's easier.


Gently roll out 1 puff pastry sheet.


Place the wheel in the center of the sheet and then slather the top of the brie with a good layer of the jam/preserves.


Wrap up the brie with the rest of the puff pastry like a 'present'.


Place on a baking sheet or in an oven safe bowl (I use the bowl).


Bake at 375 for 25-35 minutes or until the top is golden brown. Sprinkle almonds over top. Serve warm with good crackers. I use water crackers with cracked pepper.
