Ingredients
  

  • 30 oz frozen hash browns thawed
  • 4 strips bacon chopped
  • 3 Tablespoon butter
  • 1 small onion diced (about 1 cup)
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 1/4 cups reduced sodium chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 3 oz cream cheese cut into pieces
  • 3 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese divided
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella
  • 2/3 cup sour cream
  • 3 Tablespoons finely sliced green onions

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350F (175C) and lightly butter a casserole dish. Set aside.
  • Place chopped (uncooked) bacon in a large pot or Dutch oven and cook over medium heat until crisp and cooked through. Remove bacon to a paper towel lined plate and drain all but about 1 ½ Tablespoons of grease.
  • Add butter to the pot and allow it to melt. Add chopped onions and cook, stirring frequently until softened (3-5 minutes).
  • Sprinkle flour over onion and whisk until smooth (should be like a paste).
  • Gradually add milk while whisking. Add broth, garlic powder, onion powder, ground mustard, salt, and pepper and stir well. Bring to a boil.
  • Once mixture begins to boil, reduce heat, bring to a simmer, and stir frequently until thickened.
  • Reduce heat to low and add cream cheese, 2 cups (226g) cheddar, mozzarella, and sour cream. Stir until cheeses are melted and mixture is smooth.
  • Add hash browns, green onion, and cooked bacon pieces. Stir well and pour into prepared casserole dish, sprinkle evenly with remaining 1 cup (113g) cheddar cheese.
  • Transfer to 350ºF (175ºC) oven and bake 35 minutes until heated through and cheese on top is melted.
