Notes
Make Ahead: This can be made in advance and kept in the fridge for a few days, then just bake and let rest right before you'd like to eat. Also delicious reheated as leftovers!
To make this Cracker Barrel Hashbrown Casserole Vegetarian, swap out the cream of chicken soup for cream of mushroom or cream of cheese soup. Both are delicious!
Make this gluten free by using a gluten free brand of cream of chicken soup and checking all other ingredient labels. Pacific Brand is my favorite easy option for GF creamy soups.
This is very VERY good with a side of Cajun Glazed Bacon. They can bake in the oven at the same time!
Don't stress about the baking dish size. This can be in a 9x13 in a thin layer, in a large loaf pan, or anything in between that fits all of the hashbrown casserole. Just be sure it's hot and bubbly all the way through before you take it out of the oven!
