Sweet and Red Bliss Potatoes Au Gratin
Made with both sweet and red bliss potatoes, this dish is a beautiful blend of colors, tastes and textures. It's creamy, but not to heavy, and sweeter and less starchy than it would be with all white potatoes.

Ingredients
| 1 | lb | sweet potatoes (washed, thinly sliced) |
| 1 | lb | red bliss potatoes (washed, thinly sliced) |
| 1 | tbsp | olive oil |
| 1 | c | red onion (thinly sliced) |
| 2 | garlic cloves (minced) | |
| 1⁄2 | c | thinly sliced red pepper |
| 1 | tbsp | fresh thyme leaves |
| 1 | tbsp | all-purpose flour |
| 1⁄2 | c | Stonyfield Organic Milk |
| 2 | eggs | |
| 1 | c | Stonyfield Organic Low Fat Plain Yogurt |
| 1⁄4 | tsp | salt |
| 1⁄2 | tsp | black pepper |
| 1⁄2 | c | Parmesan cheese (shredded, divided) |
| 1⁄2 | c | sharp cheddar cheese (shredded, divided) |
Directions
Wash and slice potatoes into disks about 1/8 inch wide.
In a microwave safe dish, sprinkle potato slices with 1/4 cup water, cover with plastic wrap, and microwave on high for 3-4 minutes.
Remove plastic wrap from bowl and allow potatoes to cool.
In a sauté pan heat olive oil over medium-high heat and add onions, garlic and red pepper.
Cook until slightly brown, about 5 minutes.
Add thyme and flour, then whisk in milk.
The addition of flour will cause the mixture to thicken.
Remove from heat, and allow to cool.
In a 9 x 13 inch baking dish, layer the potato slices like roof shingles, until the pan is filled.
Gently fold in eggs, yogurt, salt, pepper and 1/4 cup of the Parmesan cheese and 1/4 cup cheddar into the now cooled onion mixture, combining well, and then pour over the layered potatoes.
Top with remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese and 1/4 cup cheddar and bake for 40 minutes at 375°.
