This looks so good! I would love to serve this as a holiday side dish or maybe even as a savory breakfast dish. Does anyone eat this for breakfast?

Oh yes, I do love hash brown casseroles! I serve them on holidays and sometimes as a dinner on weeknights. Most of my recipes have some kind of meat, but I will love this recipe to serve as a side dish. I can just taste the potatoes and cheese. YUM!
