POTATO CASSEROLE (FUNERAL POTATOES)



Potato Casserole (Funeral Potatoes) image

A creamy potato casserole bursting with great flavors. Perfect for breakfast carry-ins, potluck dinners, and more. Use the basic recipe and add your own touches. I love to add diced ham. Many people in my area call these funeral potatoes because they are a dish usually brought to family gatherings after a death of a family member. I am not fond of this name!

FUNERAL POTATOES (UTAH POTATO CASSEROLE)



Funeral Potatoes (Utah Potato Casserole) image

This recipe is from Utah where it's commonly served at large church gatherings, such as funerals, which is how it came to be known as 'funeral potatoes'. There are so many different versions of this recipe but this is how I make it. The recipe was originally called Utah Potato Casserole though some people have never heard it...
