Mediterranean Potatoes

Thanks to Karelia Grafmyre (my amazing sister-in-law) for this incredible new recipes!! My husband and I travel a lot and I love visiting friends and family because I get to learn some of their favorite recipes and the different techniques they use to cook!! Everyone has their own recipes that are family favorites and I'm always intrigued to know what, why and how! Karelia originally made these with fingerling potatoes which were phenomenal and so I put in a request for more!! She mentioned they were also great with yams/sweet potatoes, so we went with the yams!! Great choice... Savory & Sweet!! 



3 TBS coconut oil
4 yams or sweet potatoes (OR fingerling potatoes), diced
1 large sweet onion, chopped
1 TBS Italian herbs (dried oregano, parsley, basil)
1/4 tsp Cayenne pepper
2 cups fresh spinach 
sea salt

Topping:
feta cheese, crumbled
green onion, chopped


Servings 4 ~ Heat skillet and add 1 TBS of coconut oil along with yams. cook on med-high for 15 minutes
~ Add onion and cook for another 15-20 minutes. continue adding coconut oil throughout cooking if skillet gets too dry (prevent burning potatoes)
~ Add Italian herbs & Cayenne pepper. continue to cook until potatoes are soft & even slightly browned 
~ Add spinach and cook until wilt. Add a good amount of sea salt (to taste)
~ Place potatoes on plates and sprinkle feta cheese and green onions. Finished!!
