Number of Servings: 8

Ingredients

    Casserole:
    16 oz frozen hash browns, thawed
    1/2 cup chopped onions
    1/2 can cream of chicken soup
    1 cup reduced fat sour cream
    1/2 stick margarine, melted
    4 oz grated sharp cheddar cheese
    salt & pepper to taste

    Topping:
    1 cup corn flakes cereal, crushed
    1/4 cup margarine, melted

Directions

In a large bowl, combine onions, soup, sour cream, melted margarine, cheese, salt, & pepper until well mixed. Stir in thawed hash browns. Spread mixture in the bottom of a 2.2 qt rectangular baking dish or an 8'' square baking dish coated with cooking spray.

Crush corn flakes in a ziplock bag, then mix with melted margarine in a bowl. Spread topping evenly over casserole mixture.

Bake at 375 for 50 minutes or until casserole is warm throughout and topping is golden browned, but not burned.

Note: You can double this recipe to make the classic "potluck" version in a 13x9'' baking dish. That will produce 16 servings, whereas this version only makes 8 to reduce leftovers.

    This was so delicious and the cereal crust was just sweet enough, but not too sweet. Highly recommend this for any meal! - 1/10/11

    I get so excited when someone brings this for a potluck!! It's great for any mealtime! And now a lower fat version... I'm in heaven! The O'Brien diced hashbrowns work wonderful and you can omit the onions (since they are already in the bag). - 2/4/10

    This was very good! I left out the topping and the butter, used FF sour cream and used 98% FF cream of mushroom soup. WILL MAKE AGAIN! - 1/21/10

    This was wonderful! I used ff sour cream and left out the margarine. I also reduced the margarine to 1.5T of butter for the cornflake topping. It turned out great! - 1/1/10

    I have a used this recipe before (not from here) I switched to 98% fat free cream of mushroom soup and no topping. That should help with the calories. - 11/19/08

    Oh, yes for sure am going to make this one, do you really need all the butter or could you probably us half of that and maybe Pam spray the top of the cornfalkes to get them to brown and get crispy. - 11/6/08

    This is so incredible! We love this potluck favorite. My husband and I were happy to know we could eat it and stay true to our spark menu goals. I paired it with the Egg White Omelet w/ Ham & Swiss posted by SparkPeople user DOOZE* for dinner & side of roasted veggies. YUMMO! - 7/29/10

    Will definitely make this again, but will probably back off on some of the cheese. It was very rich. Very good though! Thanks for the recipe! - 2/11/09
