MASHED POTATOES

Recently, I mentioned that I was making a BIG effort to get “real” meals on the table for the family…and that means I have lots of our favorite dishes to share with you.  I figured it was also a great time to start working on creating a Recipe Binder that is full of our Family’s Favorites so that I could make copies of it and give it to the kids when they start out on their own (gah!!).

Today we are sharing our favorite…Garlic Mashed Potatoes Recipe!

This recipe is one of those tried and true recipes that makes the perfect side dish for a nice Sunday or weeknight dinner.  It also makes a great dish to serve at Thanksgiving or to bring to a dinner party.  Everyone loves a good mashed potato.  And this one does not disappoint.
