The “Crowd Favorite” That Disappears Faster Than You Can Refill the Coffee
If you’ve ever been to a Midwestern church potluck, holiday brunch, or family reunion, you’ve met “funeral potatoes”—the rich, creamy, golden-crusted casserole that shows up at every gathering, whether joyous or solemn.
This slow cooker version is my secret weapon: only 5 ingredients, zero stress, and zero dishes beyond your slow cooker.
Toss it in before you shower. Come back to a kitchen full of cheesy, buttery, crispy-edged comfort that tastes like you’ve been stirring a pot all morning.
And every. single. time?
People ask for the recipe.
