Hi everyone! My name is Kristin and I am a writer for Marie Callender’s® and other ConAgra brands. I am thrilled to be writing for Lori today. Let me tell you a little about myself. I live in the Chicago suburbs and I absolutely love cooking new recipes. My favorites include breakfast sandwiches in the morning, Mediterranean-style wraps for lunch and rice-based dishes (with lots of Cholula) for dinner.
It’s getting a bit chilly here in the Chicagoland area, so I am starting to use my oven more frequently to warm up the house. Whenever I have my friends over for dinner, I bust out my Apples to Apples game and serve my cheesy hash brown casserole—one of my favorite recipes for fall. The dish takes around an hour to prepare and makes great leftovers! Hope you enjoy.

I worked a long, long time ago at Cracker Barrel and their hashbrown casserole was so delicious. I have never been able to mimic it either. But I like your because of the veggies in the pot pie soup. Seems to add something.
