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.
