I have made this for several years. I make this and another casserole the night before and then you are ready to go in the morning. A crowd fav.

I have been making this wonderful TOH recipe for many years. Lots of cheesy goodness in every bite. Never get tired of it.

Can this be made the night before and how would I store it

I found this recipe courtesy of Taste of Home. Good stuff. I added more cottage cheese than it called for, and the recipe I had didn't use salt or pepper. I also cooked regular potatoes with the onion and bacon in a pan instead of using hash browns. Yum!

This is delicious! I found this recipe Christmas Eve, and took a chance and served it for Christmas Brunch. Everyone raved over its creamy texture and rich cheesy taste mixed with the crunchy,salty bacon. Thank you for posting!
