I sometimes wish I lived near some of my food blogger friends, it would make it so much easier wouldn't it? All of the wonderful food I see on some of my favorite blogs all in one place? I wish we could but since we couldn't, we came together to do a virtual potluck. I'm sharing a huge family favorite, a potato casserole. It's a really easy casserole to make. You really cannot get easier than this cheesy potato casserole.
We have it at Thanksgiving every year and even at Christmas. I like to eat it with scrambled eggs for breakfast too! A co-worker shared the recipe with some years back, 6 years ago? I would love to give credit where credit is due so if you recognize it, let me know!
Mix together the sour cream, shredded cheese, cream of celery soup and salt & pepper first then add potatoes and mix well. Add more salt and pepper to taste.
Spread evenly in a 9×13 metal or glass dish. Cover the casserole with crushed corn flakes and melted butter. You won't regret this dish.
I mean it, you won't. So tell me…what's your favorite brunch recipe?
Potato Casserole

- softened butter, to grease the pan with
Instructions

It would be so much fun if we all lived near each other. This casserole sounds like pure comfort food for the holidays, and the cornflakes on top are so clever.

We love this potato casserole! But I’ve never added corn flakes! I’ll give that a try next time we make them!
Julie @ Table for Two says
I wish we all lived closer too! We’d all be cooking for a potluck every weekend, I’m sure 🙂 and speaking of your dish for a potluck, I love your potato casserole with the corn flake topping. Sounds delish and an added bonus crunch too 🙂
