CREAMY HASH BROWNS

Creamy Hash Browns image

My mother often took this comforting side dish to social dinners because it was such a hit. Now I get the same compliments when I make it. Bacon and onion jazz up a creamy mixture that's quick and easy to make thanks to convenient frozen hash browns and canned soups. -Donna Downes, Las Vegas, Nevada
