Nani's Mashed Potato Casserole

I got this instant mashed potato casserole recipe from my ex-wife's mother. People absolutely beg her to make this for family dinners and potlucks. It's so simple, she'll often just give them the recipe. The only thing bad about this recipe is there are never any leftovers!
