Idaho Potato Vegetable Casserole Supreme - Cheesy potatoes and veggies topped with sprinkles of crushed Ritz crackers. Perfect for your holiday dinner or a potluck crowd.
I never told you that this summer I won a recipe photo contest. Because of this contest, I now have a new favorite recipe in my regular menu rotation. We absolutely love this potato dish. It's creamy, cheesy, flavorful and feeds a BUNCH of people.
Perfect for our church potluck dinners and a holiday dinner dish.
I have ideas to do a twist on this in the future, so that it's a one-dish meal. I know you can't wait. But, for now, enjoy it as it is - a side dish. Try not to eat it all, because even though it contains vegetables, I think your waistline may regret you eating the entire pan.
Just a guess.

- 1 (10 oz.) bag microwavable frozen mixed steamed vegetables (peas, carrots, green beans, corn)

I have a question about this... I don't have hash browns, frozen or otherwise but I have a BIG bunch of potatoes. Do you think it would work just as well if I diced up 3 lbs of fresh potatoes?

This would make an amazing Shepherd's Pie with the addition of ground beef! Thanks for the recipe, I can't wait to half this (there are only 2 of us) for a weeknight meal.

Amy says
This definitely looks worth trying and it looks like it could be a one pot meal like it is or by adding some diced ham. Thanks for sharing.

Oh my word! This looks amazing!! There's nothing better than cheesy potatoes - except maybe cheesy, creamy potatoes with a Ritz cracker topping! Love this recipe! I'm veggie so I'd have to use cream of mushroom soup or something instead but I'm sure it would still work great!
