Tasty Funeral Potatoes

If you are familiar with (Utah potato casserole) you might already heard about The funeral potatoes. If not then it's time to learn how to make the best funeral potatoes regardless of its strange name, it is definitely worth trying! 😋

I guarantee you that you will find them surprisingly tasty! I tried them my self the first time my mom made them, I couldn't help myself but finishing the whole casserole 😅 

Ingredients

1 large 30-oz package of traditional frozen hash browns (take out of the freezer 20 mins prior to cooking)

½ large yellow onion chopped

1 tablespoon butter

1 teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon ground black pepper

½ teaspoon garlic powder

2 cups sour cream

2 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese

3 tablespoons chives we used freeze dried but you can use fresh too

1 can cream of chicken soup or click on the link in the paragraph above for a homemade condensed cream of chicken soup recipe

1 ½ cups French’s Fried Onions crushed

2 cups nacho cheese Doritos crushed

I used a large gallon size bag and a rolling pin to crush my French’s Onions and Doritos.

Instructions

In a medium skillet heat 1 tablespoon butter and cook your onion until soft (about 5 mins)

In a large mixing bowl combine your hash browns, salt, black pepper, chives, sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, cream of chicken soup and your cooked onion. Stir well. It may take some serious arm muscle to work this all together if your hash browns are still frozen but should mix easily if thawed.
Preheat your oven to 375°. Put your potato mixture into a 9×13 casserole dish and cook in the oven for 30 minutes. Take out and stir the whole casserole well. Put back in the oven and continue to cook until it’s bubbling on the sides and in the middle, about 20-30 more minutes depending on your oven. Once it’s bubbling in the middle you know it’s done.
Take the casserole out of the oven and sprinkle your crushed onion and Dorito mixture on the top. Put back in the oven for an additional 5 minutes but watch carefully so the topping doesn’t burn.
Remove from the oven and serve immediately.
