Cheesy Funeral Potatoes Recipe

Cheesy funeral potatoes are some of the best cheesy potatoes that you will ever make. While the name may sound somewhat strange, there's a story behind it. According to Atlas Obscura, many people think this recipe came to be because of the Relief Society, a women's service group that's part of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The ingredients are typically shelf-stable and can often be found in the homes of Mormons with large families, who are often encouraged to keep at least three months of food on hand in case of financial hard times. If someone in the community dies, these "funeral potatoes" can therefore be made quickly and easily. Today, people serve these tasty potatoes in less emotionally heavy conditions, like at cookouts and even during cozy Thanksgiving meals.
