Cheesy Hashbrown Casserole with Cauliflower is an easy, classic side dish with a veggie twist. It’s cheesy and creamy, loaded with homemade cream of chicken and greek yogurt, and packed with hidden veggies!

I grew up in the midwest and we lived for Cheesy Hashbrown Casserole at every holiday, BBQ and potluck! It’s what my childhood memories are made of, but I knew I could make a healthier version with better for you ingredients and some added veggies, for good measure. This casserole is just like the classic, but half of the hashbrown potatoes are replaced with riced cauliflower. The texture is spot on and so is the flavor of the original version. Your family is going to love it, I promise! My son’s exact words…”this does not suck!” hahaha, seriously though.

Is Cheesy Hashbrown Casserole Gluten Free

Not all versions of this casserole are gluten free, but you’re in luck, because this version is! We use a Homemade Cream of Chicken Soup that is naturally gluten free and all the other casserole ingredients are as well!

How To Make Cheesy Hashbrown Casserole

This casserole is super easy to make and the most labor intensive step is the Homemade Cream of Chicken Soup, but even that only takes 10 minutes! While you can substitute the canned version, I don’t recommend it. Make it homemade, you can thank me later!

• In a large mixing bowl, combine the riced cauliflower and the shredded hashbrowns (when buying frozen hashbrowns, turn the bag over and read the label. Make sure the only ingredient is potatoes. THIS is the brand I love and recommend). You can combine both ingredients frozen, no need to thaw out or do anything to them before starting.
• Add in the cream of chicken and plain greek yogurt and mix till cauliflower and hashbrowns are well coated.
• Sprinkle in salt, pepper and garlic powder and mix.
• Add in shredded cheese (I used colby jack, but cheddar or sharp cheddar works great too).

• Once mixture is well combined, pour into a 9×13 inch baking dish and spread evenly.
• Top casserole with sliced butter.

• Bake casserole at 350 degrees for 1 hour. After hour is up, turn oven to broil and continue for 5 more minutes till top is golden brown.
• Remove casserole from oven and let sit for about 10 minutes so any remaining liquid will thicken.

This casserole is the perfect side dish to almost anything, but we especially love it next to these Grilled Burgers or this Spicy Grilled Chicken.
