New WW Recipe: Hashbrown Casserole

Wednesday, December 31, 2008

Sorry for the long hiatus, this is like the longest I have gone without blogging, but I am sure everyone else had Christmas, etc. and so were also not having "checking blogs" as #1 priority, lol! So, while I can't say I didn't eat anything bad for me over Christmas, I was very proud that I made a WW recipe for Christmas breakfast - a healthy hash-brown casserole! It was so good - of course, not as good as the one from Cracker Barrel, but still super yummy. I actually made the recipe with low-fat sour cream instead of fat-free because fat-free sour cream, cream cheese, etc. is always really gross to me, lol. (Oh, and you can use reduced-fat cream of chicken soup in exchange for the condensed milk, they use cream of chicken soup in the original Cracker Barrel one). And it must have been a hit because my family ate a ton of it! Here's the recipe:

1 cup thinly sliced green onions
1 cup (4oz) shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese
2 tablespoons stick margarine (melted)
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 (32 oz) pkg frozen Southern-style hash brown potatoes (thawed)
1 (16oz) cartoon fat free sour cream
1 (10 3/4 oz) can low-fat condensed milk

1) preheat oven to 350. 2) combine all ingredients in a large bowl, and stir well. Spoon mixture into a 13x9" coated with cooking spray. Bake at 350 for 1 hr bubbly. Yield: 9 servings (servings size: 1 cup). in weight watchers this is 3 points exchanges: 1 starch, 1 fat, 1/2 veg

Definitely try it, it's very easy to make and tastes good re-heated as well!
