Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 30 ounces frozen shredded hash browns
- 1 (12-ounce) can SPAM, diced
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 (15.25-ounce) can corn, drained
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne (optional)
- 2 1/2 cups whole milk
- 4 tablespoons salted butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
- 2 ounces potato chips, crumbled
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Mix frozen shredded hash browns, SPAM, 1 ¼ cups cheese, corn, salt, pepper, and cayenne in a large bowl.
- Spread the mixture evenly in a 9×13-inch casserole dish.
- Pour the milk evenly over the casserole, then dot the top with the butter.
- Bake for 1 hour uncovered on the middle rack.
- Sprinkle the remaining ¾ cup cheese over the casserole, then top with the crumbled potato chips.
- Bake for another 10 minutes.
- Serve.
Notes
- Omit the cayenne if you prefer no added heat.
- I use whole milk, but lower-fat milk can also be used. Heavy cream will make the casserole considerably richer.
- I also tried frozen diced potatoes and that worked okay.
- Serve with hot sauce, if desired.
