Heat the olive oil in a large skillet. Add the onion and saute over medium heat until translucent. Add the carrots and continue to saute until the onion is lightly browned.
Add the remaining ingredients except for the walnuts in a mixing bowl and stir until thoroughly mixed. Don't worry if the potato slices break apart.
