Ingredients
- 1 (32 oz.) bag of hash browns
- 14 oz. kielbasa, cut into small pieces
- 1 small onion, diced
- 2 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 10.5 oz. can of cream of chicken or mushroom soup
- ½ cup sour cream
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Slow Cooker: Grease the inside of your slow cooker with cooking spray or a little oil to prevent sticking.
- Combine Main Ingredients: In the slow cooker, combine the hash browns, kielbasa, diced onion, and 2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese. Mix it well.
- Mix Creamy Sauce: In a separate bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, sour cream, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth.
- Combine Everything: Pour the creamy mixture over the hash brown mixture in the slow cooker. Stir until everything is well-coated.
- Top with Cheese: Sprinkle the remaining ½ cup of cheese over the top of the mixture for a gooey finish.
- Cook: Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 4-5 hours. Check for doneness; the potatoes should be tender but not mushy.
Notes
Consider sautéing the sausage and onion for enhanced flavor. Monitor cooking time for fresh potatoes, and store leftovers properly.
