What to bring to a potluck?

[Vela]

The typical Utah potluck dish is cheesy potatoes aka funeral potatoes. At least, when I'm asked I always make that or a desert, and its at every potluck I've ever been to. It's easy and pretty cheap to make. There's a bunch of recipes online for it, I just make it from my head though so here's a bad from my head recipe:

2 medium bags of frozen hashbrowns or potato cubes (enough to fill a 9x13 pan, just use your judgement on how many you'll need based on looking at the pan size)
1 large (family size) can of cream of chicken soup
1 medium container of sour cream
3 cups cheddar cheese
Crushed Cornflakes (optional)

Pre-heat oven to 350. Pour the hashbrowns into the pan. Mix the cream of chicken soup, sour cream, and 2 cups cheese together and pour over the hashbrowns, stir it all together. Sprinkle the remaining cup of cheese on top and if you want, crushed cornflakes. Cover with tinfoil and bake at 350 until its warm and bubbly. I haven't made it in a while I can't remember exactly how long it takes, but just start out with 30 minutes and go from there, you'll be able to tell when its done, the cheese will start to brown and it will be bubbling. You can make it the night before and leave in the fridge and bake it before you go. I usually do that, it bakes faster that way because the hashbrowns have had time to thaw out.

Hahaha love it Amy! Such a Utah dish. I'm not originally from here, so I didn't know what people meant when they said "funeral potatoes", but I love those! Thanks for the recipe, I keep forgettting to make them!

P.S. you need to come out and ride again!

Are your brocolli, cauliflour and carrots raw or cooked?

sorry just caught the question. everything but the taters, eggs and ham are left raw. and you want the taters, eggs and Ham all cold before you do anything with it.
