Potato Recipe - Party Potatoes for a Hungry Crowd

Post on Jul 19th 2008

Party potatoes will satisfy even the hungriest crowd! How do I know? Read on.

Back in college my volleyball team was in my hometown playing in a tournament. Mom was gracious enough to accept my request to host a team dinner at the house. Mom always says her goal is to prepare enough food to feed Coxs Army. Maybe this is some secret service special detail that only a Mom would know about, because I dont remember reading about Cox in any of my history classes.

Mom made her menu and prepared the meal and believed she had the army covered. And she was right! The team was quite satisfied after dinner and the only dish the team left empty was the party potatoes! Mom was very proud to have more food than could be eaten! She certainly does not like anyone to leave the table hungry.

If a large family gathering is scheduled for Thanksgiving, the following recipe from my Moms kitchen can add a very filling side dish to your table.

2 lb. bag hash brown potatoes

1 pt sour cream

2 cans cream of mushroom soup

1 can cream of potato soup

2 cups sharp cheddar cheese

Salt & pepper to taste

Mix and put in casserole dish.

Bake 40 minutes @ 350 degrees.

Optional:
Put some shredded cheese on top of casserole.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Thanks Mom.
