NOT YOUR GRANDMOTHER'S POTATO CASSEROLE

Remember when I found this thrift store find?  Well, here is the first recipe and it was a resounding success. 

When I actually made this recipe I realized it really was my grandmother's recipe.  One that was undoubtedly passed around bymany women at neighborhood coffee clatches, tupperware parties and PTA meetings.  I did update it a bit and hubby can't seem to get enough of it.
POTATO CASSEROLE
2 pound package frozen hash browns
1 can cream of chicken celery soup
1 teaspoon garlic salt 2 cloves garlic, minced
1 pint 8 ounces sour cream
salt and pepper to taste
12 tablespoons butter, melted, divided 8 tablespoons and 4 tablespoons
2 cups corn flakes Special K original
2 cups 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt  1 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon parsley
  • Preheat oven 325 degrees.
  • Rub the inside of a 2 quart casserole with butter or spray with PURE.
  • Whisk together the sour cream, soup, 1/2 cup melted butter and seasonings.
  • In a large bowl toss the frozen hash browns with the wet ingredients and 1/2 the cheese until well blended.
  • Arrange the hash brown mixture in the prepared baking dish.
  • Top with remaining cheese.
  • Top with the Special K.
  • Pour remaining butter evenly over top.
  • Bake 1 hour on lowest shelf in oven.
Better the next day and the next and the next...
