SLOW COOKER HASH BROWN CASSEROLE RECIPES RECIPES

Steps:

• Using paper towels or a clean kitchen towel, thoroughly squeeze the excess liquid from the defrosted hash browns. Mix the hash browns, ham, onion, bell pepper and 1 cup of the Cheddar together in a slow cooker.
• Whisk together the milk, sour cream, salt, garlic powder, pepper and eggs in a medium bowl until blended. Stir in the cream cheese. Add the mixture to the slow cooker and stir to combine with the hash browns.
• Cover and cook on low for 5 hours or high for 3 hours, then sprinkle with the remaining 1 cup Cheddar. Cover and continue to cook on high for an additional 1 hour.
• Turn off the slow cooker, remove the lid and let the casserole rest for 30 minutes. Sprinkle with the scallions and serve with ketchup and hot sauce, as desired.

Steps:

• Spray 5- to 6-quart oval slow cooker with cooking spray. In 10-inch nonstick skillet, cook pork over medium-high heat 5 to 7 minutes, stirring frequently, until no longer pink; drain. Stir in taco seasoning mix and water. Cook over medium heat 1 minute, stirring constantly to coat.
• In large bowl, beat eggs and half-and-half with whisk. Stir in green chiles, shredded cheeses, hash brown potatoes and seasoned cooked pork. Carefully stir in cream cheese cubes. Transfer mixture to slow cooker.
• Cover insert with large kitchen towel. Place slow-cooker lid on top of towel. (This will prevent condensation from dripping during cooking.)
• Cook on High heat setting 3 to 3 1/2 hours, rotating insert after 1 1/2 hours. Cook until casserole is set and temperature in center is 165°F. Top with remaining ingredients.
