I am in love with this sour cream hash brown casserole. It is incredibly easy to whip up using just basic ingredients, and this is ready in a snap. It’s a great side dish excellent to pair with pork chops, chicken, and steaks, with a side of steamed green beans for dinner. You can bring this to potlucks or gatherings. This casserole is also amazing to serve for a big brunch or dinner.
I especially enjoy this casserole for breakfast with some scrambled eggs and bacon. This sour cream hash brown casserole has been my favorite and go-to for a large weekend brunch or breakfast.
If you prefer a vegetarian casserole, you can use cream of mushroom instead of cream of chicken soup. You can store any leftover sour cream hash brown casserole in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze it for up to 2 months. Leftovers are great for an easier and quicker meal.
