Rating: 5 stars I've made this three times each time I've added something different. The first time I added chopped green onions to give it color and a different dimension. The second time I pre sautéed thinly sliced baby bella mushrooms along with the chopped green onions. And my last pass to the two previously added ingredients I crumbled some Ritz crackers sautéed those in butter and sprinkled on top of the cheese...and needless to say I get asked to make that every week for dinner in my home of only 4 people and there is never leftovers, they love it do much. I love this recipe because you can do all sorts of things with it. Though I will say it is better to use hidden valley ranch packs then store brand or McCormick's because the others tend to be to salty. (Or just use less) My next adventure is to make a healthier version using reduced fat bacon (lol, right) fat free sour cream, halve olive oil and a pat of butter for the Ritz cracker topping using Reduced fat or lower sodium crackers. And reduced fat cheese. Oh snd oven sautéed mushrooms using butter flavored Pam. I wonder if my family will notice the difference! Thumb Up Helpful (115)

Rating: 4 stars Made as written using the cubed hashbrowns and these were really good. I thought the ranch might overpower but it didn't whatsoever. There is just the right amount of bacon so that you taste the smokiness in each bite yet it isn't overpowering either. I didn't see the footnotes until after I made this but I agree with the recipe submitter and will use shredded hashbrowns next time. I think ham would also work well in this recipe. Definitely a keeper! Thumb Up Helpful (42)

Rating: 3 stars I was mentally prepared to love it and become an addict. But honestly, it didn't quite make it for me. Something is missing and I can't quite put my finger on it. This much fat, carbs, and calories demands a bigger payoff on the palate. On the other hand, it's ridiculously easy to make. Perfect for taking to a potluck. If I make it again, I will scour the other reviews to see what others did to address that mysterious missing "something." Update: I haven't tried it yet, but it occurred to me that the "missing" element here may be the cream of chicken or mushroom soup that is included in other similar recipes. The mixture seemed too dry going into the over, as was the finished result. I'll try adding low-sodium (already enough salt here I think) soup next time. But then we're already talking about a different recipe aren't we? Thumb Up Helpful (36)

Rating: 5 stars Add the cream of chicken and wow. Excellent. Five Stars. Thumb Up Helpful (35)

Rating: 5 stars We loved this! I read from other reviews that it turned out dry. Not sure if that was really the case, but I added a can of cream of chicken soup to make sure it was extra creamy. It turned out amazing. I also cooked my bacon in the oven, which saved a little mess. I will be making this often! Thanks for posting the recipe! Thumb Up Helpful (31)
