Au gratin sweet potatoes recipe

Au Gratin Sweet Potatoes

November 14, 2013

Our au gratin sweet potatoes with bacon recipe turns ordinary into extraordinary! We used, thyme, butter and cream to create a rich sauce for this casserole.

This dish is simple to make especially if you have a mandolin. Just be careful to watch your fingers and use the guard. If you don’t have a mandolin, slice as thinly as you can using a sharp knife.

Sautéing onions and garlic and mixing them with homemade bacon bits, creates a delish layer, in-between sliced sweet potatoes and Gouda cheese. This dish just begs to be eaten!

You’ll have made a side dish that everyone will be raving about and you will be forever nominated to bring it to holiday meals! It’s that’s good.
