Funeral Potatoes Premium PD Recipe

2017-02-21

Cheezy potato comfort food casserole is also known as Party Potatoes, popular in both Mormon and Southern communities. The popular dish received its appropriate name because it is commonly served during after-funeral dinners. It is served at most social gatherings and potlucks in Latter-day Saints communities. With a Protective Diet makeover, I expect Funeral Potatoes to become a favorite quick prep take and bake casserole to comfort and satisfy the entire Protective Diet community.

    I made these on Saturday and cooked them on Sunday, and they were good but pretty dry. I wonder if anyone has added more sauce to make the dish moister?

      You could add more sauce, but they will not have a crispness to them. Use a smaller pan next batch then they will not be spread out as thinly and will be moister.

      I’ve never had any leftover after one meal with Jerry and I eating. You could give it a try.

        I just mean, if I had a lot of hashbrowns that I wanted to be able to use up or prepare ahead of time, I wondered if I could make a few of these and put them in the freezer.

    This is such an easy recipe and we all love it! We’ve had our fair share of funeral potatoes (since we are LDS ) and these are so good!

Just the Beginning

I have always loved to cook. When the kidlet and I went vegan 7 years ago, it inspired me even more in the kitchen. But then I became an empty-nester and after a while I found it hard to maintain the excitement, the energy I used to have in meal planning, meal prep and cooking.… Read more or comment “Just the Beginning”

I was arguably one of the worst fast-food junkies I know. McD for breakfast, most lunches, and many dinners…and fast foods and TV… Read more or comment “Judi B.”
