Blt Smashed Potatoes image

I was wandering through the Food Network website and found this recipe in a Rachael Ray episode. It sounded really good and I thought I could tweek it a bit to make it a bit more diet friendly. BLT stands for bacon, leeks and tomatoes.

I'm not a fan of avocado, so I left out the avocado dressing. The potatoes were still delicious.
