My family made me the best steaks for Mother’s Day and as part of our dinner, I made our FAVORITE steak side dish ever…the BEST Cheesy Potato recipe on the planet! When I was a kiddo, my extended family used to call this recipe “Aunt Tina’s Cheesy Potatoes” after my mom who made them for all the get togethers. Little did we all know, cheesy potatoes casserole is a very popular recipe (whether you call it cheesy potatoes or funeral potatoes), but it will always be loving known as my mom’s recipe! 😉 So if you’re looking for a SUPER simple grilling side dish or something perfect to pair with steaks or burgers, this cheesy potatoes with corn flakes on top is your dish!

Easy Cheesy Potato Recipe:

So here’s an EASY way to remember the ingredients in the recipe….

You need 2 of all the ingredients!

2 cups of cheese

2 cups of sour cream

2 cans of cream of chicken soup

So simple to remember when you’re at the store!!

Once the whole thing is cooked, then you top it with crunchy corn flakes and butter to give it a nice crisp crust. Then watch people dig in and LOVE your side. It’s so addicting. We literally make it with almost every family meal and none of us ever complain.

And paired with a delicious filet (my personal favorite) and your choice of veggie…it’s perfect. You can grab the recipe below and let me know what you think!!
