Notes

Serve Funeral Potatoes warm. They pair well with meats such as chicken or ham, and can be enjoyed alongside a fresh salad or roasted vegetables. For extra flavor, add cooked, crumbled bacon or sautéed onions. Use other types of cheese or crushed potato chips for topping as variations. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days, or freeze them for up to 2 months.
