Potatoes O'brien (Potatoes With Peppers and Pimentos) image

Ha Ha Ha...I came across this recipe, and guess what? This is what I always thought was hash browns. No wonder I usually don't like hash browns when ordered out! This recipe calls for pimento, which I looked up and found is not the same as red bell pepper. I have never knowingly seen this ingredient, so I substitute red bell pepper. It is supposed to be a little sweeter.
