Not a fan, it was bland even though I added seasoning and used hot green chillies. I much prefer crispy hash browns.

I love any meal that can be thrown together in my slow cooker. This was another winner in my book. I let the hash browns thaw at room temperature first. They weren't soggy at all.

Turned out delicious. I agree that 7 hours would have been plenty, and next time I'll use fewer potatoes. I followed Grit's advice to thaw and use them at room temp and they weren't soggy at all. I was unsure about the green chilies so I put them only on about 1/4 of it, to one side. Wish I had used them on all of it, as that part was the better of the two sections. Great dish - thank you Taste of Home!

This was absolutely delicious! Only thing I was used square hash brown potatoes, I stead of shredded. Used bell green pepper instead of chilies. Layered it according to directions and placed on the oven for 1 hour.Came out absolutely perfect in every way!!Highly recommended

Replaced the green chilies with green and red peppers.. For those having trouble with hash brownsbeing "mushy" or odd in slow cooker recipes.. it helps to thaw them first.. and put them in at room temp..

I made a half recipe since there is just two of us to eat it. The potatoes were mushy and the overall taste was weird so ended up throwing it all out.

I'm sure Susan did something wrong though! My cousin made this for my girlfriends when we came to visit her in Phoenix. She also had a chilled bottle of white wine waiting... it was AMAZING! I actually found this because I want to make it for the office one day! Thanks!

Flavor was wonderful. Although, mine was burnt at the end of 5 hours and the cheese disintegrated in the mixture. I tossed the burnt sides and added more cheese as I served it. Otherwise it tasted great. Might try the oven next time.

Great, easy recipe! And GMH. , that's why they call it a review. Not everyone likes it, nor do they have to. Susan's review, no matter how negative, is permitted here. Taste of Home I'm sure doesn't expect five stars from everyone. Take a chill pill and I wish you a better day tomorrow! Wow.
