Trevor’s Potato Casserole

I am fully aware that this is yet another potato recipe but if there was a Mt. Rushmore of Thanksgiving dishes it would go. 1. Potato Casserole, 2. Potato Casserole, 3. That Green Jello Stuff (I might be alone on this), and 4. Potato Casserole. I love this stuff so much that my grandmother makes me a separate dish to take home with me every year, needless to say, I am obsessed. There is nothing you can’t like about this dish, super cheesy, very creamy and some crunch; and let’s be honest with ourselves, this year we need all of the carbs and cheese we can get. So, let’s add another potato dish to the table and enjoy this glorious feast! –– Art Director, Trevor Morse
