This comforting Crockpot Cheesy Potatoes recipe combines tender diced potatoes, creamy sour cream, melted cheddar cheese, and flavorful seasonings into a rich, hearty side dish perfect for family dinners and holiday gatherings.

Ingredients

Potatoes and Vegetables

  • 1 32 oz bag frozen diced potatoes
  • 1 medium onion, diced

Dairy and Sauces

  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 10.5 oz can cream of chicken soup
  • 4 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 2 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided

Seasonings

  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In the crockpot, add the frozen diced potatoes, diced onion, sour cream, cream of chicken soup, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, melted butter, and 1 1/2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese. Stir gently to combine all ingredients evenly.
  2. Cook on Low: Place the lid on the crockpot and cook the mixture on the low setting for 4 hours. This slow cooking allows the potatoes to become tender and the flavors to meld together beautifully.
  3. Add Remaining Cheese: After 4 hours, remove the lid and sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top. Cover again and cook for about 15 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.

Notes

  • For a vegetarian version, substitute the cream of chicken soup with cream of mushroom or a vegetarian cream soup.
  • Use a slow cooker liner for easier cleanup.
  • You can add cooked bacon or diced ham for additional flavor and protein.
  • Adjust seasoning to taste, especially salt and pepper, depending on soup brand and personal preference.
  • This dish can be reheated in the microwave or oven and makes great leftovers.
