Can substitute fat-free sour cream, fat-free milk and reduced fat cheddar cheese.
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon canola oil
2 large onions, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon salt, divided
1 1/2 lbs medium red potatoes, quartered
3 garlic cloves, peeled and halved
1/3 cup sour cream
3 tablespoons milk
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon butter, melted
1/2 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
2 bacon, strips cooked and crumbled (optional)
Directions:
1. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat; add onions and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook and stir for 15 minutes or until moisture has evaporated and onions are completely wilted. Reduce heat to medium-low. Cook and stir for 30-40 minutes or until onions are caramelized. (If necessary, add water, 1 tablespoon at a time, if onions begin to stick to the pan.).
2. Meanwhile, place potatoes and garlic in a large saucepan; cover with water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and cook for 18-22 minutes or until tender.
3. Drain potatoes; place in a large bowl and mash. Add the sour cream, milk, pepper and remaining salt; mash until blended. Stir in caramelized onions. Transfer to a serving bowl. Drizzle with butter; sprinkle with cheese and bacon.
