awesome recipe! I've never had cracker barrel's version but this is great. I made it for a class reunion dinner, I added some dried parsely for color, a package of diced ham, doubled the cream soup, and halved the butter. Came out wonderful! So quick and easy could be doubled or made to be a low-fat version. Thanks so much!

I use the packaged hashbrowns, Simply Potatos. The bags contain a little over a pound, so I just add some extra sour cream and cheese. I also cook some ground sausage and add that. I made this for my work crew, and they all thought it was fabulous. A couple of the guys like to cook, and we have tossed around a lot of ideas to make this recipe very versitile. Think about tossing in some leftover ham, corned beef, bacon. I found it easy to cut this recipe by half for the two of us at home.

I used the cream of mushroom soup also, and made two batches, one with and one without butter. The one without actually tasted better... creamier and didn''t have the fat on top after baking. Great recipe, but I would eliminate the butter.

This is as close as it gets and I've been trying to duplicate for a long time. Thaw the shredded hash browns first otherwise casserole is really watery. A little more cheese and stirring about half way through really helped to crisp up the casserole. This one is a keeper. Thanks!!!
