These potatoes are good enough for company but easy enough for family. The fresh potatoes are a great departure from the typical hash brown casserole and offer a different texture and flavor. The grating is totally worth the extra effort.
- 6 Idaho potatoes
- 1 cup cheddar cheese
- 1 can cream of mushroom soup
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 2 tablespoons Ranch dressing mix (not pictured)
- 2 tablespoons bread crumbs (also not pictured, sorry!)
- 3 tablespoons butter, melted
Instructions
- Peel and grate potatoes on the large side of a box grater.

- Combine potatoes, cheese, mushroom soup, garlic powder, sour cream, mayonnaise, salt, pepper, and Ranch dressing mix in a large bowl. Mix well. (Note on Ranch dressing mix: I use a small canister of ranch dressing mix that you can now buy. If you do not have one of these puppies, you can just use about 2 tablespoons out of a packet mix. A packet mix contains about 3 tablespoons, so you won’t need it all.)

Turn out into a greased casserole dish. Sprinkle with bread crumbs and drizzle with melted butter.

- Bake uncovered at 350 degrees F for 50 to 60 minutes.

I am making these tonight! Some sort of chicken dish will go along with but haven’t found WHAT RECIPE for that yet! BUT I am making company potatoes for sure. Can’t wait to try these!
I hope y’all enjoy them, Marisa!!
Decided to have the Company Potatoes with your Chicken Bog – and YES I grew up with this recipe with some adaptations depending on who’s house you were at when you ate it but all the same basically! Doing yours tonight n can’t wait! Almost done – smelling good! Will take some pictures and share on my FB page I’m sure!
When my wife was pregnant with our son she had a craving for potatoes and sometimes that’s the only thing that would stay down. Before he was born we laughingly referred to our son as “Tater Man”. He’s 18 now and loves potatoes as much as his Mom. Can’t wait to surprise them with this recipe. Looks delish. Thanks Stacey.
Love it! I hope you, your wife, and “tater man” enjoyed them!!
Stacey, Love the idea of company potatoes! My family has a similar recipe – we call them funeral potatoes… we always seem to eat them at the wake after a funeral. Oh my. Happy Day! Tracie
Can you just use shredded hash browns?
You can, though the taste and texture would be different.
These look amazing! Love potatoes in any form!!
