Smash baby potatoes

       Every Friday I surprise my family with new recipes. I enjoy all the comments they made when I started serving the goodies. For me that was the part I enjoyed the most.      This simple, satisfying appetizer was a hit in our Friday Night reunion. The c runchy and soft texture was a perfect match with the salty and spicy flavor.   Ingredients: 6 yellow new potatoes 6 slices of bacon, cook but not toasty 3 tablespoon French butter  Salt and pepper to taste 1/2 cup shredded Provolone cheese 1 Tbsp. olive oil Preheat the oven to  350°F    Fill 3/4 of a medium pot with water and bring to a boil over a medium high heat. Add the potatoes and cook for about 20 minutes or until tender. Transfer the potatoes to a baking dish.     With the hand masher, smash the potatoes and season with salt and pepper to taste.     Add 2 tablespoon olive oil to a baking sheet and arrange the potatoes about 3 inches apart. Sprinkle with the cheese following with the bacon.    Spoon the melted butter
