Don’t ask me why they’re called funeral potatoes, do YOU know?

ultra delicious. 😉

I’ve actually had this recipe up my sleeve for a while thanks to my friend Steph (Hiiiiii Steph👋). She had Trevor and me over for a dinner a while back and she made the MOST delicious cheesy potatoes.

Me, being me, I wanted to adapt it for my crockpot, so that’s actually what I did.

Basically, you’ll throw all the ingredients into a greased slow cooker:

• Frozen Potatoes O’Brien (diced potatoes with onion and peppers)
• Sour cream
• Cream cheese
• Cream of mushroom soup (you could also use cream of chicken, but I wanted to keep this vegetarian)
• Cheddar cheese
• Garlic powder
• Salt
• Pepper

Give everything a stir, cover, and cook.

Then you’ll top the whole thing with crushed sea salt kettle chips, because . . .

YOLO. Plus, I love the crunch it gives these crockpot funeral potatoes.

As you can see from the ingredient list, this recipe is SUUUUUPER easy and BONUS: the only ingredients you actually have to measure out are the garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Why? Because you use the WHOLE bag of potatoes, the WHOLE container of sour cream, the WHOLE block of cream cheese, etc. You get the point.

As you can also see from the ingredient list, these crockpot funeral potatoes areSUUUUUPER tasty.

I mean, you can’t go wrong with ultra creamy and cheesy potatoes, can you?

Hint: the answer is no. 😉
