Cheesy Hashbrown Potatoes

Who doesn't love a good tasting potato side dish?  And this one has everything - cheese, sour cream, even potato chips for extra crunch.  This time I made it with traditional hash brown potatoes instead of cubed, both are good.  Another variation is to put corn flakes on top instead of potato chips.  Another variation is to add a 3oz pouch of bacon bits - yum!
