"If you find funeral potatoes too grim and a hash brown casserole too boring, it's time to bring a little Mississippi Mud into your kitchen. Mississippi Mud Pie, the dessert, is a rich and decadent chocolate treat, but Mississippi Mud Potatoes are entirely different, so don't let the name confuse you. This casserole is loaded with cheese, bacon, and green onions."
"If you've never heard of it before, Mississippi Mud Potatoes are usually an easy, one-pan casserole that uses diced or chopped potatoes as a base. Any kind of potatoes work, and mini potatoes cut in half or in quarters are especially convenient. But we all know that washing potatoes and then peeling them can be a real hassle. If you're doing a one-dish casserole, sometimes you just want it out of the way quickly and easily."
"The traditional recipe for Mississippi Mud Potatoes calls for a basic sauce made mostly of mayonnaise, minced onion, garlic, salt, and pepper. The potatoes are mixed with the sauce, cheese, and bacon, and the entire casserole is baked for about 90 minutes. For those who don't like mayonnaise, sour cream or Greek yogurt are excellent substitutes."
Mississippi Mud Potatoes are a hearty one-pan casserole built from diced or chopped potatoes and often made with frozen pre-diced potatoes to save prep time. The dish combines potatoes with a creamy sauce (commonly mayonnaise with minced onion, garlic, salt, and pepper), cheese, and bacon, then bakes until hot and set. Mini potatoes cut in half or quarters work well and eliminate much peeling work. Sauce options include sour cream, Greek yogurt, condensed cream soups, cream cheese, milk, or chicken broth, allowing for richer or lighter versions and many topping customizations.
