My 8 year old son loves this dish. If he planned dinner, we would be eating Southwest Hashbrown Casserole every night. It is super easy to make, doesn’t take much prep time, and is delicious! Try my healthy variations to get each serving down to around 300 calories.

Quick Notes
I only use Simply Potatoes Southwestern Style hashbrowns. I also prefer to make this casserole using the cheddar flavored french fried onions. This casserole freezes well.
Variations
To make this recipe as healthy as possible, use 97% lean ground beef and fat free soup, sour cream, and cheese. It still tastes good – promise!
Sounds yummy!!
