When I think of the perfect side dish, I think of potatoes. They are delicious and nutritious, and best of all, versatile.

You can make them so many different ways — mashed, scalloped, fried, roasted, baked, the list goes on. They are delicious by themselves, with toppings, or in casseroles, making them a great addition to any meal.

Simply Potatoes Shredded Hashbrowns

My all-time favorite potato side dish is cheesy hashbrown casserole. It’s my go-to side dish for holiday meals or any time I am feeding a crowd.

I like to make mine with Simply Potatoes® Shredded Hash Browns. Unlike other hash browns, Simply Potatoes are always fresh, never frozen potatoes.

They taste great and I love that you don’t have to worry about thawing them before cooking them. They are yummy on their own or added to meals and side dishes.

Loaded Hashbrown Casserole - simple & delicious side dish.

My cheesy hashbrown casserole is perfectly delicious, but I recently discovered that it’s even more amazing “loaded.” Yes, just like a loaded baked potato.

Hash browns, bacon crumbles, green onions, and warm, gooey cheese combine with sour cream, cream of chicken/mushroom soup, and butter to create the ultimate comfort dish.

Are you drooling yet? I know I am!
