Make It Monday- Taco Hashbrown Casserole

Author Cody
July 19th, 2021 1:56 PM

Hey there!  Happy Monday.  I know it’s been a while, but Make It Monday is BACK!  This week’s recipe is Taco Hashbrown Casserole.

Honestly, I was in a bind and knew I needed to find something to make.  I always go with super easy anyway, but I really wanted something NOT complicated at all.  (It was that kind of weekend, ya know what I mean?)

I stumbled onto this Taco Hashbrown Casserole on Pinterest.  It IS a crockpot meal… BUT, you do have to brown and season your meat before mixing it into the crockpot.

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound of ground meat (as usual, I went with turkey)
  • 1 can of cheddar cheese soup
  • Taco Seasoning
  • 1 cup (or more) of shredded cheese – I used regular shredded cheddar, but the taco blend would’ve been great too
  • 1 bag of shredded hashbrowns (the one I got from Walmart was 26 ounces)

How To:

  • Brown your meat, and drain the grease
  • Season with a taco seasoning packet, or your own homemade blend (which I did)
  • Add water as directed on taco seasoning packet, or until well moistened
  • Pour in the can of cheddar cheese soup, and stir
  • Mix in half of the cheese
  • Mix in the hashbrowns
  • Spread into a greased crock pot
  • Top with remaining cheese
  • Set to cook on low for 4-5 hours or high for 2-2.5 hours (I chose high)

Overall, it was pretty easy, except I’d prefer to only use ONE dish (less to clean up, am I right?). Upon the taste test, I will say it needed WAY more seasoning.  Since I didn’t use an actual taco seasoning packet, I probably didn’t add enough seasoning considering the amount of ingredients.  The potatoes probably needed a little additional seasoning too- like salt or something.

Definitely a few tweaks I’d make to this one in the future.  I did add some hot sauce and salt when I prepped my lunch for today.  It was definitely better that way!

    Brown, drain and add seasonings!

  • Seasoned Up

    Use a seasoning packet or, like I did: Garlic, onion, paprika,cayenne, chili powder, salt and pepper.

  • Cheesy

    You know I love cheese! Add the cheddar cheese soup

    And then add the shredded cheese... MIX!

  • Hashbrowns

    This is a 26 ounce bag.

  • Add to crockpot

    You can definitely mix all the ingredients in one pot, but my dish wasn't big enough, so I poured the meat mixture over the hasbrowns in the crock pot and mixed up!

    Make sure you've got it all mixed up and coated well!

  • Top it off

    Add more cheese, because... there's never enough!

  • Set The Timer!

    I cooked on high for 2 hours. You can do low for 4-5 hours if you prefer!

  • Finished product

    Mine definitely needed more seasoning afterward. But overall, it was simple and makes enough for about 6 people!
