In medium mixing bowl, place cream of chk soup. Add sour cream. Add diced green onion, reserving a little green onion for a topping.  Add salt and pepper to taste. Stir well to combine ingredients.

Pour mixture over diced potatoes and stir gently until all potatoes are well covered.

Place in 9 x 13 pan.

Top with Cheddar Cheese

Bake 350 degrees uncovered 30 minutes, or until bubbly and cheese is slightly golden brown.  Top with remaining diced green onions.  Serve hot.

A favorite at our house and a great make-ahead-of-time dish.

To make it a main dish, add a little diced ham.
