Super fast and super delicious.

Hash brown potatoes are basically shredded potatoes that can be found in the refrigerated or freezer section of your grocery store. These were so popular last year that a representative from one of the brands that I recommended, Simply Potatoes, called me to thank me because sales in our area had gone up! Now although freshly grated potatoes are always best, the Hash Brown Potato Latkes are a very close second! Here are variations to share with your hungry family!

Note: These are great for the GFE (Gluten Free Eater) too! Simply substitute 1/3 cup of potato starch for the 1/3 cup flour in the recipe.
