Green Chile Cheesy Potato Casserole Questions Answered:
How do you reheat cheesy potato casserole?
To reheat the casserole, cover it with foil and preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Bake it for 25-30 minutes. Reheating the potato casserole in the oven is always the best option but you can reheat it in the microwave if you are short on time.
How do you make green chile cheesy potato casserole?
First preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Next, defrost the potatoes and melt the butter. In a large bowl combine the ingredients and then pour the bowl into the pan. Then bake it for 1 hour until it is golden brown. Finally, cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Should I thaw frozen hash browns before cooking?
Yes you should defrost the hash browns before cooking them in the potato casserole. As a little food prep, you can pull them out of the freezer the night before and place them in the fridge to defrost for 8 hours. Before adding them to the rest of the ingredients just quickly dab them dry.
Cook’s Note – Green Chile Cheesy Potato Casserole:
- You can make this cheesy potato casserole ahead of time. Follow the recipe up to step 3, then cover it with foil and refrigerate until you’re ready to bake it. You will need to increase the cooking time by 15-25 minutes, and then proceed with the remaining recipe instructions.
- This cheesy potato casserole can also be frozen. Simply prepare the recipe up to step 3, then cover it with foil and freeze. You will need to defrost the casserole before baking it, and add about 15 minutes to the cooking time. Then proceed with the remaining recipe instructions.
- When I made this recipe recently I used reduced fat sour cream, light butter, and cream of mushroom soup and it came out just as yummy. Also, if you can’t find hash browns with the bell peppers or onions already in them, you just add ½ cup of each (chopped of course).
