    How to make the best healthy hashbrown cassserole - This simple and easy recipe is perfect for breakfast or brunch, or even for dinner. Use shredded frozen hash browns for quick prep. From a Weight Watchers recipe.

    Weight loss is difficult. I've made pervasive changes though, and I'm seeing parts of the process in everything that I do. I'm seeing progress; the number on the scale is moving, and that buoys me and helps me to stick to the changes I've been working on.

    Weight loss is also uncomfortable because my body is crying out for certain foods that I'm not willing to give it. I've especially been craving some comfort food.

    Badly.

    The greasier and cheesier, the better.

    This Healthy Hash Brown Casserole from Weight Watchers' Cream of the Crop magazine (no longer available online) is a healthier, lower fat version of the comfort food I've been craving, but you would never know because it tastes just as good as the original.

    Give this recipe a try and let me know how you like it.

    How to make healthy hash brown casserole

    1. Preheat oven to 350º.  Spray a 9x13 pan with cooking spray.
    2. Combine green onions, cheddar cheese, butter, black pepper, potatoes, Greek yogurt, and cream of mushroom soup in a large bowl. Add potatoes and mix well.
    3. Spoon potato mixture into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle paprika over the top.
    4. Bake at 350º for 1 hour or until bubbly.

    Calories 236 kcal

    Ingredients
      

    • 1 cup green onions thinly sliced
    • 1 cup reduced-fat sharp cheddar cheese shredded
    • 2 tablespoons butter or reduced fat margarine melted
    • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
    • 16 oz fat free Greek yogurt
    • 10 ¾ oz condensed reduced-fat reduced-salt cream of mushroom soup undiluted
    • 32 oz Southern-style hash brown potatoes frozen, thawed
    • Cooking spray
    • ½ teaspoon paprika

    Instructions
     

    • Preheat oven to 350ºF.
    • Combine first 6 ingredients in a large bowl, and mix well. Add potatoes and stir to coat thoroughly.
    • Spoon mixture into a 9 x 13-inch baking dish coated with cooking spray.
    • Sprinkle paprika evenly over casserole.
    • Bake at 350ºF for 1 hour or until bubbly.

    Notes

    If you don't like Greek yogurt, you can substitute fat free sour cream in its place. Just know that sour cream has more carbs and more calories than Greek yogurt. I can't tell the difference between them, and it doesn't really matter which one you use in the recipe. It will taste good either way.

      This sounds a lot like the hash brown casserole we make...minus the green onions! Everyone loves it, regardless of what combination of regular, low-fat and non-fat ingredients we use! 🙂

      I made this and my hubby loved it! I used Cream of Chicken Soup instead, low fat cheese and no butter! It was still delicious!!! I’ve made it 3 times in the last few months! Making it again tomorrow!

        Hello,

        I calculated the nutritional info for you. If you are watching carbs, a potato-based casserole is probably not the best option. Nutritional info assumed you're dividing it into 8 servings. Good luck!
