This recipe was shared with me by Umber K. She has been making these garlic mashed potatoes for years and are a must at every Thanksgiving and basically, anytime I am craving mashed potatoes.
Meal idea:
Most recently we had a mashed potato bar for dinner that included different kinds of mashed potatoes (plain, cheese, and garlic) where we could choose our toppings that included seasoned ground beef, sour cream, jalapenos, salsa, chopped onions, crispy fried onions, chives, and seasoned beans (we had a Mexican theme)!
These are just the toppings we want with, but mashed potatoes are versatile and you can top with whatever you are craving!!
Have fun experimenting!!
