Ingredients

Scale
  • 32 ounces frozen shredded hash browns, thawed
  • 1 (10.5 ounce) can cream of chicken soup
  • 1 (10.5 ounce) can cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese, divided
  • 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Lightly grease the inside of your slow cooker insert.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the thawed hash browns, cream of chicken soup, cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, milk, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until everything is just combined.
  3. Stir in 1 1/2 cups of the cheddar cheese and all of the Monterey Jack cheese into the potato mixture.
  4. Transfer the mixture to the prepared slow cooker. Pour the melted butter evenly over the top of the potato mixture. Do not stir.
  5. Cover the slow cooker and cook on LOW for 4 to 5 hours, or on HIGH for 2 to 3 hours, until the potatoes are tender.
  6. During the last 30 minutes of cooking, sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese over the top. Cover and cook until the cheese is fully melted and gooey.
  7. Stir gently before serving to combine the cheese topping. Serve hot.

Notes

  • If you prefer using fresh potatoes, peel and cube about 3 pounds of Russet potatoes and boil them until just tender before adding them to the mixture.
  • For an extra savory flavor, substitute the cream of chicken soup with cream of celery soup.
  • This recipe is excellent for holiday gatherings; set it up in the morning and forget it until dinner time.
