• 4 oz. Buddig Original Cotto Salami, coarsely chopped
• Cooking spray
• 2 large onions, thinly sliced
• 2 Tbsp. olive oil
• 1 tsp. salt, divided
• 2 1/2 pounds potatoes, peeled and cubed
• 1/4 cup and 1 Tbsp. butter, divided
• 1/4 cup whole milk
• 2 Tbsp. horseradish
• 1 egg, beaten
• 1 cup shredded Fontina cheese

• Spray a 2 1/2 quart casserole dish with cooking spray. Set aside. Heat oven to 400 degrees.
• Sauté onions in olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until onions are tender and caramelized. Season with 1/4 teaspoon salt.
• Meanwhile, cover potatoes and 3/4 teaspoon salt with water in a 4 quart saucepan, bring to boil and cook until potatoes are tender (about 15–18 minutes). Drain potatoes. Return potatoes to same pan. Place pan over medium heat until all moisture has evaporated. Add 1/4 cup butter and mash until fairly smooth. Stir in the milk, horseradish and egg until blended. Fold in the caramelized onions, salami, Fontina cheese and 1/4 cup Romano cheese.
