Mammaw's Hashbrown Casserole

This cheesy potato dish is great any time of day. This time, I made it for breakfast when out of town guests stayed for New Year's, but just last week my grandma made it as a side for Christmas dinner. Sorry, there is no picture. I was entertaining said guests. About $6 to make 12 servings.
