    Cheesy Jalapeno Hashbrown Casserole

    Cheesy Jalapeno Hashbrown Casserole is a rich-tasting breakfast casserole with a homemade sauce, lots of cheese and a little heat from jalapenos. Inspired by Cracker Barrel’s famous side dish this Cheesy Jalapeno Hashbrown Casserole is easy to make and requires no cream-of soups!

    We love savory breakfast options in our household and comfort food. Making comfort food a little bit healthier is one of my favorite things to do. Cheesy Jalapeno Hashbrown Casserole was inspired by Cracker Barrel's famous breakfast side dish, but with the addition of a little heat from jalapeños.

    Ingredients

    • Butter
    • Onion - Yellow or white.
    • Fresh Jalapeños
    • All-Purpose Flour
    • Milk
    • Chicken Bouillon Cube
    • Spices: Garlic powder, paprika, salt and pepper
    • Frozen Hashbrown Potatoes
    • Sour Cream
    • Cheddar Cheese

    Substitutions

    • Jalapeños – You can substitute Hatch Green Chiles in place of the jalapeños, roasted red bell peppers, poblano peppers or omit completely.
    • Better than Chicken Bouillon – You can substitute any dry chicken bouillon cube, equivalent to making 8 oz. of chicken broth.
    • Sour Cream – This recipe has successfully turned out with both Regular and Light Sour-Cream.
    • Milk – Use whole-milk for a richer taste. Low-fat milk works well too.
