Ingredients
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 1 clove of garlic, chopped
- 4 slices unsmoked bacon, roughly chopped
- 6-8 leftover roast potatoes, cut into cubes
- 7oz of leftover cooked veg (brussels sprouts, carrots, cabbage or kale)

- Heat the olive oil in an ovenproof skillet or pan on medium heat.
- Add the onions and allow to cook for a couple of minutes, before adding the garlic and bacon, stirring continuously.

- Add the cooked veg and maple syrup, season with salt and pepper and cook for a few more minutes.
- Add the grated cheese and mix through before removing from the heat.
