How to Make Taco Hashbrown Casserole in a Slow Cooker

Aunt Lou here.

At the end of last year, I made a Taco Crock Pot Tater Tot Casserole recipe for you guys that was an instant favorite in my family (both at my house and when I shared it with my extended family while we were out in Texas) and with our readers. Your response to that recipe got me thinking of other recipes that will satisfy your palate and be super easy to make. That is how you guys are now seeing this wonderful Taco Crock Pot Hashbrown Casserole! So yummy!

This recipe is a cinch to throw together. Beware though, when your family sees you throwing this recipe together, they are going to go nuts and bug you about how much time is left before dinner until it is dinner time. lol However, you will be the hero of your home when it is time for dinner!

If you area cheese lover, you can always add more cheese to the recipe. In my humble opinion, there is no such thing as too much cheese!

It is in the recipe, but I want to reiterate it here: make sure your country style hashbrowns are still frozen. They will thaw and cook in the crock pot. If you thaw them before you put them in the crock pot, they might be overcooked by the time the cooking time is over.

Psst…wanna make this in your oven? You can find there recipe here.

    Can I put this together the night before and refrigerate it and cook it in the morning

      I haven’t tried putting this together the night before. My only concern is how it would change the cooking time. In the original recipe, the hashbrowns are frozen when the cooking time starts. If it is in the fridge overnight, the hashbrowns would thaw. If you give it a try, I would watch it closely to adjust the cooking time as needed.

    I’m not sure if I’m missing it somewhere but what is the serving size? I’m diabetic so I have to take insulin for my carbs but I can’t find how much a serving size is.

      The serving size is 1/6th of the casserole. Please keep in mind, the nutritional content depends on which products you choose to use when cooking this dish. The auto-calculation is just an automated estimate and should NOT be used for specific dietary needs.
