Expert Tips

O'Brien potatoes are diced potatoes, with chopped onions and pimientos or red or green bell peppers that are fried until they are golden and crispy. Frozen O'Brien potatoes have not been fried.

Cooked bacon is a great time-saver; look for it in the grocery store meat department.

With fresh fruit and sweet rolls or toast and jelly, this versatile, flavorful bake makes an easy brunch or weekend breakfast. For supper, serve this potato bake with a crisp green salad and French bread.

My husband and I loved this recipe. The tomatoes compliment the artichokes perfectly. Next time I would probably add another tomato but was excellent like it is.

We really enjoyed this dish. I didn't have the frozen O'Brien potatoes so I used fresh potatoes, bell pepper and onion. The potatoes were not tender after the recipe time so I kept it in the oven for an extra 30 minutes. This is an easy recipe to make and very delicious.
