Hash Browns Casserole With Bacon, Onions, and Cheese
A casserole that you can prepared the night before. May be served as a main dish or as a side. Use cheddar in place of the four cheese blend. I personally have not tried this recipe yet but plan to include it in my menu as a side dish very soon. I believe this comes from Cooking Light and has been recommended to me. I'm putting it here on Zaar for safe keeping. Prep time is estimated and does not include refrigeration time.
