5 cups water
4 cups frozen hash brown potatoes
2 7.6 ounce packages Betty Crocker Butter & Herb Mashed Potatoes mix
1/2 cup butter
4 ounces cream cheese
1 cup Monterey Jack cheese
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
2 cups canned french-fried onion rings
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Bring the water to a boil, add the hash browns, and cook for 5 minutes; drain. Prepare the mashed-potato mix according to package directions. Soften the butter and cream cheese together in the microwave. In a large bowl, mix together the hash browns, mashed potatoes, butter and cream cheese, Jack cheese, sour cream, garlic salt, salt and pepper. Place in a greased 2-quart casserole. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until golden on top. Sprinkle the onion rings (I crush them) over the casserole and bake for about 5 to 8 minutes longer, or until onions are golden brown.
NOTES : These are sooo good. They have to be - look at all the wonderful ingredients.
