Funeral Potatoes

What would side dishes be without Funeral Potatoes. I never make them often enough for the kids, but then my friend, Lindsey told me how to make them using frozen hash browns so you don't have to grate the potoatoes. That is the reason I don't make them very often, I hate grating the potatoes.

* 2 (10 3/4 oz) cans Cream of Chicken Soup
