Helens Cheesy Potatoes Recipes

Steps:

• In a 4-qt. slow cooker, combine the first 6 ingredients. Stir in hash browns and 1-1/2 cups cheese. Cook, covered, on low until potatoes are tender, 4-5 hours, sprinkling with remaining cheese during the last 5 minutes.

Steps:

• 1. Earlier in the day, or the night before, cook the potatoes in a pot of water until just done. (I use red-skinned potatoes so I don't have to peel, but if you use regular potatoes, cook them with their skins on, then peel the skins off right before slicing them.) Drain & cool completely. Refrigerate, if cooking them the night before.
• 2. When it's time to put the dish together, slice the potatoes into a cooking-sprayed 13 x 9" pan. (This photo shows regular potatoes with their peels removed before slicing into the baking dish.)
• 3. To make the cheese sauce, melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the flour with a whisk. Add the milk & salt and continue stirring constantly. Cook until the sauce is hot and starts to thicken. Remove from heat.
• 4. Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until melted. Slowly add additional milk while stirring, until the cheese sauce is thinned to the desired consistency.
• 5. Pour the cheese sauce over the sliced potatoes, covering completely. Using a spoon, lift up potatoes from the bottom so the sauce will run down. (If the cheese sauce is too thick, just pour a little bit of milk over the potatoes and don't worry about it. They'll still turn out fine after baking.)
• 6. Bake at 350 degrees F. for around 25 minutes, until the dish is bubbly in the middle and the cheese on the top looks done.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray 2 quart glass baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. In large bowl combine all hash brown ingredients; mix well. Spread into prepared baking dish.
• In small bowl stir together topping ingredients. Spread topping evenly over hash browns. Bake 45 minutes or until hash browns are tender.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a large baking dish, mix together potatoes, soup and sour cream. Mix in cheese and butter. Salt and pepper to taste, if desired. Top the mixture with potato chips.
• Bake 60 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the mixture is bubbly and lightly brown.
• Remove from oven and let stand 15 minutes before serving.
