Ingredients

The following ingredients have 9 Servings
  • 2 lbs. Frozen hash browns (we used these!)
  • 1.5 cups shredded swiss cheese (separated)
  • 2.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese (separated)
  • 1.5 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1.5 teaspoons salt
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • ⅓ cup all-purpose flour
  • 1.5 cups chicken broth (any kind of broth works)
  • ½ cup sour cream or Greek yogurt

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 350ºF and spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray. 
  • Pour the hash browns into the casserole dish and add 1 cup of shredded swiss cheese and 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese to the hash browns and mix them all together until they are combined. 
  • Season with garlic powder and 1 teaspoon salt and toss to combine. Set aside. 
  • Next, heat a small saucepan over medium/high heat and add butter. When the butter is melted add the flour and whisk the two together until a crumble forms. 
  • Slowly add the chicken broth to the crumble, mixing constantly until a thick roux forms. 
  • Add ½ teaspoon of salt to the roux, mix and remove from the heat. 
  • Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese into the roux, whisking until the cheese is melted. 
  • Finally, add the sour cream to the roux and mix until combined. 
  • Pour the cheese sauce over the hash browns and mix to combine everything together.
  • Evenly spread the hash browns over the casserole dish and place the casserole dish into the oven and bake for 30 minutes. 
  • Remove from the oven and sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese and swiss cheese over the top of the casserole and bake for an additional 15 minutes. 
  • Change the oven to broil after 15 minutes and broil the casserole for 2-3 minutes until the top of the casserole is golden brown. 
  • Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes. 
  • Serve and then enjoy.
