Classic Hashbrown Casserole Recipe

Today’s recipe is inspired by Cracker Barrel’s cheesy, creamy hashbrown casserole which is one of my favorite sides! It tastes similar to funeral potatoes, just without the crispy topping. It’s a delicious combination of potatoes, sour cream, cheddar cheese, and cream of chicken soup!

There’s a reason why a version of this dish is at almost every potluck I go to- it’s just that good! You can’t go wrong with the combination of cheese and potatoes.
