Baked Hash Browns au Gratin
Make A Joyful Table p.166
freezer friendly

when I pulled this dish from the oven, melted cheese bubbling, everyone in the kitchen grabbed a fork and pleaded for a taste! And when a dish looks and smells that scrumptious, you know it's going to taste sooo good--and it does. Of course, you may have trouble convincing people it's low in fat and good for them....

4 1/2 cups (15 ounces) shredded loose-packed frozen potatoes
2/3 cup Carnation Nonfat Dry Milk Powder
1 cup water
1/4 teaspoon lemon pepper
1 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
1/3 cup (1 1/2 ounces) shredded Kraft reduced-fat Cheddar cheese

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray an 8-by-8-inch baking dish with butter-flavored cooking spray. Arrange potatoes in prepared baking dish. In a small bowl, combine dry milk powder, water lemon pepper, and parsley flakes. Evenly pour milk mixture over potatoes. Bake for 45 minutes. Evenly sprinkle Cheddar cheese over top. Continue baking for 5 to 7 minutes or until cheese melts. Place baking dish on a wire rack and let set for 5 minutes. Divide into 4 servings.

Serves 4 - each serving equals:
HE: 1/2 Pr, 3/4 Br, 1/2 SM
