Ingredients

1 tablespoon Canola oil

2 large Vidalia onions, thinly sliced

1 teaspoon salt, divided

1 1/2 pounds medium red potatoes, quartered

3 garlic cloves, peeled and halved (I use 4 cloves)

1/3 cup reduced fat sour cream

3 tablespoons fat-free milk

1/4 teaspoon pepper

1 1/2 tablespoon butter, melted

1/2 cup shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese ( I use sharp)

3 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled

1 tsp dried tarragon

2 tbs. grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat; add onions and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook and stir for 15 mins. 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 stick to the pan.

Meanwhile, place potatoes and garlic on a large saucepan;cover with water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and cook for 18 to 22 minutes or until tender.

Drain potatoes; place in a large bowl and mash. Add the sour cream, milk, pepper, tarragon, Parmesan and remaining salt; mash until blended. Stir in caramelized onions.

Transfer to a serving bowl. Drizzle with butter, sprinkle with cheese and bacon.

Lovely post, thanks! But in step one you indicate cooking for 40-40 mins ... perhaps a small edit needed?

I just finished making these. They are very very good and for anyone concerned, 40 minutes was about right for making the onions. I cooked them so low that they could have actually gone a little longer.
Anyway--perfect recipe . Thank you!
