Red Flannel Hash Serves 4
Ingredients:
1 large sweet potato, peeled and cut into ½ inch cubes
8 ounces small red potatoes, quartered
1 1/2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1/2 yellow onion, chopped
4 ounces bacon, cooked and chopped
2 medium (or one large) red beets, roasted, peeled and cut into ½ inch cubes (How to Roast Beets)
1 tablespoons fresh thyme, minced (plus more for garnish)
salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
1. Place sweet and red potatoes in a large pot and fill with water. Place pot over high heat and bring to a boil.
2. Boil potatoes for about 15 minutes or until potatoes are still slightly firm and drain.
3. Place a large skillet over medium high heat. Add the oil and onions and sauté for 3 minutes.
4. Add potatoes to the skillet and continue to sauté for an additional 7 to 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
