Once you’ve tasted what O’Brien Potatoes can do to an already to-die-for cheesy potatoes recipe, you’ll never want to make cheesy potatoes any other way!

I’m not lying when I say these cheesy potatoes are the best—they out-bake all other cheesy potatoes recipes. Before I tell you the secret, I must warn you… don’t bake this cheesy potato casserole unless at least 10 people are in attendance for dinner.
Fewer guests than that and you’re sure to eat half a pan of the potato-y, buttery, cheesy, cornflake-crunchy goodness.
Not a good choice when combined with leftover Halloween candy and all the Thanksgiving trimmings.
Now for the secret to baking the best cheesy potatoes: O’Brien potatoes. For reals.
Once you’ve tasted what O’Brien frozen hash brown potatoes can do to an already delicious cheesy potato recipe, you’ll never want to make your cheesy potatoes any other way. The O’Brien potatoes—you know, the ones with the red and green peppers—add the right amount of kicked up flavor without overpowering the dish.
Top all that creamy cheesy potato goodness with cornflakes tossed in melted butter and you’ve basically created what’s sure to be everyone’s favorite holiday side dish. At least, it’s everyone favorite holiday side dish around here!
To make it the favorite and the prettiest, I prefer to serve this recipe in a white baking dish. The one you see pictured is CorningWare from Target, but I also love the perfectly rectangular shape and solid handles of this HIC lasagna pan.
In fact, you may want to pick up two because these funeral potatoes are so popular I often double the recipe… not because I need to feed more people but so I can have a pan entirely to myself. #truth
Whether you call them cheesy potatoes or funeral potatoes or cheesy potato casserole or not-so-skinny potatoes (so totally not skinny), I guarantee you won’t regret making them this holiday season. Or on Easter Sunday. Or when your brother-in-law comes to visit because he loves them and always compliments your cooking.
