Ingredients for Funeral Potatoes
Potatoes – This recipe uses diced hash brown potatoes from the freezer. Any frozen (or pre-cooked) potatoes will work. Cheese – Sharp cheddar cheese adds a bright, tangy flavor but use what’s in your cheese drawer. Cheese tends to melt best if you shred it yourself from a block. Sauce – Melted butter, condensed cream of chicken soup, and sour cream make up the sauce. You can use cream of mushroom soup in place of cream of chicken or cream of celery soup to make it vegetarian. Topping – Crushed cornflakes are mixed with butter for the perfect topping. Replace the cereal with crushed potato chips (any flavor) or ritz crackers.
