Hazel's Crockpot Thursday

So here we are again...only this time it really is Thursday...grin...at least that is if I set the auto post correctly...grin...

Hazel wanted to do something simple this week, so she picked two very simple recipes (don't tell her though, they really don't go together, but I'm kinda letting her have her way for awhile...grin)...Enjoy

Crock Pot Potatoes

1/2 cup butter or margarine, melted

Combine butter, onions, water and soup in
crock pot. Mix in the potatoes. Cook on low setting
6 hours or until potatoes are done. About a half hour before you are ready to serve them, pour in the sour cream and stir.
