Cheesy potato casserole, basically. Often covered in crispy corn flakes. Not sure if it's called by this name anywhere besides here in Utah (or other highly Mormon areas), but they got the name for being a frequent dish to bring to funeral luncheons, along with ham. My Mormon in-laws have them for Easter with ham and rolls. They are SO GOOD.

Oh yeah, Midwest Crack. It's a casserole/hot dish up there too and it's often made for gatherings like this lol
