you say potato, i say bacon

if you can't use the peel in a smashed potato dish, you can still get the added texture by using chopped, cooked bacon. this is three yukon gold potatoes, cut in chunks and boiled in enough water to cover, until easily smashable. i drained and then stirred in the bacon, one bulb's worth of baked elephant garlic, a handful of grated cheese, and a couple tbsp each of olive oil and sour cream.
