This recipe came about when I was in the last restaurant I worked at. The delivery truck mistakingly sent us a case of hash browns, that we don't serve. I also had some pkgs. of instant mashed potatoes that a previous cook used instead of real ones. I don't do that for a meal. Then I had some mushrooms that needed to be used & we had left over baked potatoes to use. So, this is what I came up with. Every loved it. I made this for a catering last night & the people putting on the event came back & told me everyone was raving over the potatoes.

How To Make peggi's cheesy, cheesy, potatoes, potatoes, potatoes

  • 1
    Saute onions until slightly browned. In large hotel pan, layer chunked up baked potatoes, hashbrowns, onions, sliced mushrooms & velveeta cheese cut into small cubes. *If you don't have left over baked potatoes, use left over fried ones, etc, some kind of potato with same texture & size.

    Now, spread on the soups & sprinkle with seasonings. With both hands, mix this up good.
  • 3
    Now, pour mashed potatoes over top evenly. Mix well with hands.
  • 4
    Now, add the milk a little at a time, mixing well after each addition. Make sure this mixture is thick because the soup & cheese when warm will thin it. You can always add more milk later if too thick. **Same amount of regular milk may be used.
