Czech Red Potatoes

My grandmother made wonderful red potatoes which were seasoned with onions and bacon, which were coated with butter and  vinegar.  My recipe replaces the butter with olive oil and they are oh so good.  Complimented with pork, chicken or beef and your favorite bottle wine.  Let’s have some fun!

3 pound bag of small red potatoes covered with water and seasoned with salt.  Boil  until tender and set aside.,

12 ounce package of lean Hormel Black Label Bacon.  Trim off fat and place in iron skillet.  Brown bacon until all pieces are crisp and browned. Place bacon on plate covered with paper towels and drain well. Drain bacon grease from iron skillet.  Add 1 onion chopped and sauté with bacon until onion is tender in the iron skillet.  Add ½ cup olive oil along with onion, bacon, ¼ cup red wine vinegar and cooked potatoes.   Toss and enjoy with your side chicken or pork.  Remember enjoy and have some fun!  Do not forget the wine!
