AKA Funeral Potatoes, for those looking to try one type of casserole traditionally taken to the family of the bereaved in some regions, including West Virginia. My daughter, Jennie, made a double batch for a family cookout and they had disappeared after the first pass. Almost even better, this recipe is super easy - just stir together then bake. These potatoes are great for any gathering, but I hope yours are all happy occasions. =^..^= Shared with permission.

How To Make jennie’s creamy cheesy potato casserole

Step 1

Mist a 13 X 9” baking dish or 3 quart casserole dish with cooking spray. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Step 2

In a large bowl, stir together the frozen potatoes, sour cream, cheddar cheese, chicken soup, and salt and pepper. Spoon into the baking dish and even out.
Step 3

Melt the butter in a microwave-safe bowl for 20-30 seconds.
Step 4

Pour the sleeve of Ritz crackers into a ziptop baggie and crush with a rolling pin or skillet. Pour the cracker crumbs into the melted butter & stir together. Sprinkle the cracker mixture over the potato mixture in the baking dish.
Step 5

Bake for 45-50 minutes or until the potatoes are baked through and the topping is browned. Refrigerate leftovers, if this ever happens. =^..^=
