Very good mashed potatoes

[ladypanther]

Boil about 5lbs mashed potatoes...add garlic (and salt if desired) while boiling.

When done, drain, Add an 8 oz package of cream cheese. Use mixer to mash/blend.

These are the best!

Note: I use new-white or red potatoes. Do not peel. Adds character and vitamins.

A new breakfast joint in Ballantyne called "Skillets" adds sour cream to their hash browns and they are just amazing! I imagine the same holds for mashed taters

I came to the realization last weekend that instant mashed potatoes are better than real mashed potatoes.

They are too gluey and sticky. They are a good thickener for savory stuff or batters for deep frying.

I agree.

That's funny...I made some garlic mashed potatoes last night. Didn't use cream cheese though. I'll try that next time.

KFC mashed potatos and gravy are the best.

Free your mind. Embrace the flakes.

blasphemy!!!!! you just haven't had good real mashed taters.

Peel and Boil potatoes

Put potatoes in mixer with

heavy cream,

a shitload of butter,

a little bit of rosemary,

some horseradish (only if you want a little heat),

and garlic (not garlic powder, you put some butter and garlic in a saucepan and heat and melt butter with a little bit of rosemary)

add salt and pepper to flavor.

and voila. the dankest mashed ever.

I bet you think Taco Bell beef tacos are better than home made tacos too, huh?

I've had great homemade mashed potatoes before, but I had some really great instants last weekend, and when you factor in prep time/cost, instant cannot be beat.

Deal with it.

fixed. It does take a while to boil the potatoes I guess...
