When I was really young (like middle school), I used to make potatoes in the oven a ton. By the time I hit my teenage years, I loved to cube up potatoes and cook them up in a skillet. Once I met my husband, we would cook up either fried potatoes or roasted potatoes constantly. They are total comfort food and they go with everything that isn't pasta or rice-based. I was excited to make these potatoes because not only do they have bacon and cheese, but PESTO too. Oh, how I love pesto. Pesto makes everything better. And with bacon, these potatoes are just incredible.
