Time 45m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 potatoes, peeled and cubed
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
½ cup diced red bell pepper
½ cup diced yellow bell pepper
¼ cup all-purpose flour
2 cups chicken broth
ground black pepper to taste
3 ounces baby spinach leaves
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons bacon bits
1 tablespoon minced garlic
2 tablespoons butter
½ cup cream
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Place the potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and allow to steam dry for a minute or two.
  • Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the red and yellow bell pepper, and cook until the peppers begin to soften, about 3 minutes. Stir in the flour, and cook for 3 minutes more. Pour in the chicken broth, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer gently for 15 minutes. Season to taste with black pepper.
  • Once the potatoes have finished draining, return them to the pot along with the baby spinach, Parmesan cheese, bacon bits, and garlic; mash until smooth. Fold in the butter and cream until incorporated and season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve the mashed potatoes alongside the bell pepper gravy.
