Mary Potatoes

These might be called "scalloped hash brown potatoes".  What fun would that be? The initial recipe came from my nextdoor neighbor of close to 30 years. I changed it up from her use of frozen hash brown patties to Simply Potatoes. When the local Publix decided not to carry those anymore, I tried bags of frozen shredded hash browns. That worked as well. Believe me though, when Publix came to their senses, I went back to those not frozen shredded hash browns. 

Note:  this recipe says 12 servings. I need to add "or 4 college water polo players." This is based on actual real-life experience. You can easily half the recipe.

OK -- this is the first in a series of not-heart healthy, but totally yummy and easy recipes...
