What are the Best Potatoes for Hashbrown Potatoes?

I used a 28 oz. bag of Heinz® Ore-Ida® Potatoes O'Brien with Onions and Peppers. (Potatoes O'Brien, if you're unfamiliar, is the name for a potato dish that includes potatoes and peppers.)

I love the convenience of using pre-cut potatoes for my hashbrowns. It just makes everything so much easier and faster!

Ingredients for Cheesy Hashbrown Potatoes

These oh-so-cheesy hashbrown potatoes contain good, simple ingredients:

• Heinz® Ore-Ida® Potatoes O'Brien with Onions and Peppers
• Spicy pork sausage (or medium or mild if that's your speed)
• 4 eggs (optional)
• ½ cup chopped onion (because I like a little extra onion)

... and that's it. Oh yeah... and a sprinkle of cheese (if not,  they'd just be plain hashbrown potatoes!).  Just about ½ a cup of cheese is perfect for this big batch of meat and potato deliciousness!

Add some salsa if you're so inclined... it adds a Tex-Mex flair and some more spice that will leave you begging for more.
