I make this using cream of chicken soup, call it Texas potatoes. It is very very good. Why do people rate a recipe they have never tried? Are we rating printing techniques now? Why bring the rating stars down, for a wonderful potato dish that would appeal to so many. Some people wont look at a rating with low stars, so silly people put less stars because of.......printing??? PLEASE, try it....then rate it....the recipe, not computer or printing issues!! Send it to your email, or Pinterest, you don't have to print it!! I LOVE this potato dish. Just changed up the soup.

This will not fit in an 8x8 dish. I have made this for years and it fills a 9x13 dish to the top. - Just saying.

I make this with cream of onion soup and it is soooo good. I also put crushed potato chips on top or sometimes nothing. Whatever you have in your pantry!

I make the recipe using cream of chicken soup and Ore-Ida O'Brien potatoes (they have onions and green pepper). It's a favorite with my family. Also, I omit the corn flakes.

Mr. Food: may I use fresh shredded potatoes in this recipe??? I would probably add some finely chopped red peppers, also so crumbled bacon.

Yes, the potatoes are defrosted and all of the ingredients will fit into an 8-inch dish. Thank you for asking and enjoy!

I think someone should check the butter amount in this . You can not get 3/4 cup out of 1/2

Thank you so much for catching this! We made the correction in the instructions above. Step #2 should be 1/4 cup butter, not 3/4 cup. We appreciate you contacting us! Thanks again and enjoy!
