The ultimate in comfort food, this easy Crockpot Hashbrown Casserole goes with just about any main dish. It's the hands off way to make that famous Cracker Barrel side dish.
In a large bowl, combine the thawed potatoes, butter, onion, 2 soups, salt and pepper. Mix well.
Add in 8 ounces of shredded colby cheese and mix again.
Spoon the mixture into the greased slow cooker, spreading it evenly across the bottom. Cover and cook on high for 3 hours.
Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheese on top. Tilt the cover of the slow cooker 90ยบ so that some of the steam escapes. This allows the cheese to melt and some of the steam escape which will firm up the casserole slightly. Cook this way for an additional 30 minutes.
Garnish with fresh parsley, rosemary or your other favorite fresh herb.
