Directions
Step 1

Season the mixture with salt and black pepper, adjusting to taste.
Step 5
Transfer the mixture to the greased crock pot and spread it out evenly.
Step 6
Cover the crock pot with its lid and cook on low heat for 4 hours, or until the hash browns are tender and cooked through.

Step 8
Once done, stir gently, then serve warm and enjoy!
