Funeral Potatoes

Written by on in Side Dishes, Vegetables

My sister-in-law Eileen shared this recipe with me years ago. Of course I had to ask WHY this fabulous hash brown casserole was called Funeral Potatoes. The story goes… when someone in the parish passed away, the church ladies would host a luncheon after the funeral for the family and friends, and this was one of the dishes they always served. My family enjoys this so much, we now serve it on Easter and Christmas, with our baked ham.
