Recipe tips.
- Fresh potatoes: Peel and shred 4 Russet potatoes. Add them to a pot of water, and bring to a boil. Turn the burner off and let them sit for 5 minutes. Drain and add to the crockpot.
- Add veggies such as savory sautéed bell peppers, garlic, and mushrooms, while milder options are spinach, blanched broccoli or cauliflower, or corn.
- Oven option. If you need this cooked more quickly, thaw hashbrowns and bake in a 375°F oven and bake for another 30 minutes. Add the cornflake topping and bake for another 10-15 minutes.
Place leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days, or freeze for up to 2 months.
