Mashed Potatoes


Mashed Potatoes:
5 lb bag of potatoes
Salt
Pepper
Lawry's
Milk-just enough to make it creamy, but not soggy
Garli-boil the potatoes with it
1 package Cream Cheese
1/2 cup Butter

This is a really simple recipe. I eat it everyday because it is so simple and I am from Idaho. So for this recipe you have to use Idaho potatoes or it won't turn out. trust me. I have tried. Actually I haven't and I am sure they will turn out with whatever starchy ball of starch you choose. Just peel and slice the potatoes and toss them in a pot of boiling water (with a little bit of garlic) until they are soft enough for a fork to go through them. Drain the tatoes and then combine butter, cream cheese, milk, and seasonings. Mash them all together and taste until the flavor is good for you. Add more salt if necessary. Then I take out my hand blender and whip the potatoes until smooth and fluffy. That's it folks. That's dinner.
I like to serve them with chicken (pictured) or steak and a veggie and You gotta make gravy. I'll show you how later.
