1 can (10.25 oz) cream of chicken (or cheddar) soup

1 pint sour cream

½ cup melted butter

½ cup finely chopped onion

2 cups grated Colby cheese

¼ teaspoon pepper

Instructions:


Prep: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.

Mix: In a large bowl, combine the thawed hash browns, melted butter, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, chopped onion, 1.5 cups of the grated cheese, and pepper. Stir until everything is thoroughly mixed.

Assemble: Pour the hash brown mixture into the prepared baking dish. Evenly spread it out, then sprinkle the remaining ½ cup of grated cheese on top.

Bake: Place in the oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the casserole turns golden and bubbly.
