brunch potato casserole mod
Aug. 28th, 2021 08:17 amYesterday was my birthday, and since we’re still in quarantine and careful about what we bring into the house, and my parents aren’t cooking or grilling these days, I had to make my own birthday dinner. I saw the recipe for Brunch Potato Casserole on AllRecipesDOTcom and modified it.
IT WAS AWESOME I’m listing the modified version below, but you can find the original on AllRecipes
Prep 30 min / Cook 1 hour
Ingredients
- 8 small-to-medium baking potatoes
- 1/2 pound Gruyere cheese
- 1/2 pound Mozzarella
- grated cheddar cheese to sprinkle on top
- grated or powdered Parmesan to sprinkle on top
- 2 cups mayonnaise
- 1 sweet onion finely chopped
- 10 ounces sliced and cubed Canadian bacon
- 12oz package of frozen peas
Directions
- preheat oven to 400F/204C
- peal potatoes (leave them on if you like) and cut into 1 inch cubes
- boil potatoes until they’re beginning to be soft (took me about 10 minutes) - use a large pot so you can add other ingredients later
- drain and stir in Gruyere, Mozzarella, onion, Canadian bacon, frozen peas - mix until cheese is melting but still stringy
- don’t stir so much that you end up with mashed potatoes - you’re folding more than you are mixing
- add 2 cups of mayo and mix
- grease a large baking dish and dump the potato mixture into the dish
- sprinkle Cheddar and Parmesan over the top
- Bake for 1 hour
For the last 15 minutes of the bake, I turned the heat up to 425 to get a crispy top.
I made oven-baked cabbage at the same time, but both my mom and I ended up mixing the cabbage into the casserole on our plates, and it was so good!
The only things we put on cabbage are butter and pink salt.
