Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (10.5 oz) can cheddar cheese soup
  • 1 (10.5 oz) can cream of chicken soup
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • ½ stick unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon low-sodium Cajun seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 pounds frozen shredded hashbrowns
  • 3 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided

Instructions

  1. Mix the Creamy Base: In a large bowl, whisk together the cheddar cheese soup, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, melted butter, and seasonings until smooth.
  2. Combine with Hashbrowns: Stir in the frozen hashbrowns and 2 cups of the cheddar cheese until fully coated.
  3. Load the Crockpot: Pour mixture into a lightly greased slow cooker and smooth out the top.
  4. Cook Low and Slow: Cover and cook on LOW for 3 hours.
  5. Final Melt & Serve: Sprinkle remaining 1 cup of cheddar cheese over the top. Cover and cook for 1 more hour, or until bubbly and golden.
  6. Garnish and Enjoy: Top with chopped parsley or sliced chives if desired.

Notes

  • Add Heat: Mix in a dash of cayenne or hot sauce for a spicy kick.
  • Vegetarian Swap: Use cream of mushroom soup instead of cream of chicken.
  • Make It Meaty: Stir in crumbled cooked bacon or ham for a heartier version.
  • Make-Ahead Tip: Assemble the night before and start the slow cooker in the morning for no-stress prep.
