Cheesy Shredded Hashbrowns

My roommates and I recently hosted a Friendsgiving in our home. I had no idea was I was going to prepare as all of my roommates had claimed the traditional Thanksgiving components. In my head I was going through all of my Mother's recipes and I thought of the perfect recipe, cheesy potatoes. Little did I know this delicious recipe was actually super easy to make. I'd like to share this simple recipe with you today.

Ingredients

• 1 can (10.5 oz) of cream of chicken soup
• 1 (16 oz) container of sour cream
• 2 cups of shredded mild cheddar cheese
• 1 whole yellow onion diced 
• 1 bag (30 oz) of frozen shredded hash browns
• 1 stick of melted butter
• ground black pepper
• Corn flakes and 1/4 cup melted butter (optional)

First preheat your oven to 350° F. All you have to do is combine all of the ingredients except for the corn flakes in a large bowl. Stir until all the way combined. Put the mix into a large baking pan that has been sprayed with nonstick spray. You can also combine the corn flakes and 1/4 of melted butter to put on top to create a casserole, but this portion is optional. Bake for 30-40 minutes or until brown around the edges. 

Go ahead and give this a try. I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as me and my family do.
