This was okay. We both added salt and pepper on our plates which helped the flavor. I think it would have been better with thinly sliced fresh potatoes rather than the cubed hash brown frozen ones.

Very good and easy. Love the crunchy topping.

I made this with shredded hash browns since the store was out of the cubed but I don't think it made any difference when it came to the taste. I didn't have any of the Chicken in a Basket crackers so I crushed some Ritz crackers for the top and added a whole small chopped onion, salt and pepper and a little more garlic than was called for. This recipe makes a lot so I have half in the freezer for another meal.

Made these with Easter dinner, we really liked them. I had to use Shredded hash browns, the stores were out of the cubed, and didn't put in the onions per daughters request. I want to make them again with the onion, just for that extra flavor I enjoy. Very, very good!

Five humongo stars for our families new favorite potato casserole! Was skeptical this would really be "different" but was proved wrong. Super easy to mix up, baked in time stated. Super, super tasty..just right amounts of all ingredients so they blended nicely, no one ingredient outshines another. I'm not sure that the crackers were really that distinctive, but I think they tasted better than plain old cornflakes. A new favorite- thanks!
