- Hey, y'all, ho, ho, ho.
0:04
Look, I'm Jamie Deen in my mama's kitchen.
0:05
You know I got something easy for you.
0:07
This is the perfect side dish for your holiday season.
0:10
It's a hash brown casserole.
0:13
It's so simple, y'all.
0:14
Look, I want you to see.
0:17
Y'all speak and we listen.
0:19
Somebody for this recipe recommended
0:21
that we cook these onions down a little bit
0:24
rather than putting 'em in raw.
0:25
So that's what I've done this morning.
0:27
Sauteed off these onions,
0:29
and we're gonna get us a good size bowl.
0:32
Got my wooden spoon here.
0:37
I'm gonna add one bag of frozen potatoes.
0:42
Half a cup of melted butter.
0:49
Two cups of sour cream.
0:52
One can of cream of chicken soup.
0:56
Every casserole's shortcut.
1:00
I've got some House Seasoning here.
1:04
And I'm gonna put one pack of this cheese in,
1:08
and I'm gonna save the other one for the topping.
1:11
But this is so easy today,
1:13
I don't even have to take a break before we get to the oven.
1:17
Mix all this stuff up really well.
1:20
Now Christmas time is a super busy time for everybody,
1:23
most especially around the kitchen.
1:26
Now this is a dish that you could put together
1:28
the day before or the night ahead if you'd like.
1:30
Keep this in your refrigerator,
1:32
and then all you have to do in the morning is bake it off.
1:36
You might have seen earlier
1:37
that I did a breakfast casserole.
1:39
That's what my mom has done my whole life
1:42
was breakfast casseroles for Christmas Eve.
1:46
And she would always change it up,
1:48
and I always thought it was so awesome
1:51
when we got to halftime at Christmas
1:52
that we would have a hot breakfast.
1:54
And mom never had to pull herself away from the fun.
1:58
So I would recommend y'all do that.
2:03
One big bowl of all this goodness
2:05
straight into a prepared pan.
2:10
Some people are picky and hard to please.
2:12
But who is not gonna like potatoes and sour cream and cheese
2:15
and sauteed onions with a little bit of soup to firm it up?
2:19
This looks fantastic, y'all.
2:20
We're going into the oven.
2:22
Theresa, do you know how long?
2:24
- [Theresa] For about 20 minutes.
2:27
Going in the oven, 35 minutes y'all.
2:29
When you come back, we're gonna cheese it up,
2:31
back in the oven for just two minutes.
2:34
This has been cooking away in our oven for about 25 minutes.
2:38
I'm gonna take the rest of this cheese and put it on here.
2:42
Oh, this is gonna be so good.
2:45
Mama will tell you real quick, she's a meat and potato girl,
2:48
so we're using Mama's potatoes recipes today.
2:53
Y'all don't go anywhere.
2:53
Get your forks warmed up.
2:55
Christmas is such a busy time of the year.
2:58
Do not be afraid to take some shortcuts if you need to.
3:02
This bag of frozen little cubed potatoes
3:04
that you find in your freezer section
3:07
is a perfect shortcut for y'all this time of year.
3:09
Got your Christmas tree,
3:11
you got the presents, you got the family,
3:12
you got many things to do.
3:13
Do you really want a boil and cube potatoes?
3:15
Go to the freezer, y'all, take a shortcut.
3:18
See, I put a little bit of extra black pepper on here
3:28
You can take an ingredient like a frozen hash brown,
3:30
and you put your love around it,
3:32
put it in the oven, it comes out.
3:33
Nobody will ever know the difference.
3:35
Appreciate y'all tuning in today.
3:37
Merry Christmas, everybody.
3:38
I'm Jamie Deen, this is good food.
3:40
See y'all around the kitchen.
