This hearty hashbrown casserole is a perfect side for a hungry family gathering. My niece shared this recipe with me several years ago. This has been a favorite dish at many of our family gatherings. I was surprised and and tastebuds were pleased the 1st time I sampled this dish and was told the topping was made with cornflakes. Hope you enjoy!
