We love love love our potatoes in this house. We like ‘em baked, roasted, grilled and especially mashed! I threw a bunch of stuff from the fridge together for these babies and all anyone could say was MMMMMMM. So here they are, MMMMMMahsed Potatoes!
Serves 6 Prep Time: 5 minutes Cook time: 20 minutes
1 1/2 lbs baby red potatoes
3 cloves garlic, peeled
S&P
splash of cream
1/4 cup chicken stock
1/4 cup parmesan cheese
2 T butter
Cut your potatoes into quarters and toss them in a medium sized pot with the garlic cloves. Fill with cold water. Set over high heat and bring to a boil. Once the water is boiling season the water with salt. Cook until fork tender about 8-10 minutes. Drain well and transfer to a bowl. Toss in remaining ingredients and mix with hand mixer or smash with a potato smasher. Serve with a bit of sauce from chicken marsala.
Oh oh oh, guess what? I’m guest posting today over at my girl Katie’s at Sassy Silly Spunky Momma She is just awesome and you should go on over and check her out.

Wow! Those look delicious.
Those look TOO GOOD!! Our potatoes are doing great now, in the garden, but some of them will definitely be turned into your recipe!
About your bull mastiffs and sleeping on the beds – for a while. I always wanted our Shepherd to sleep on our bed, but I can see now that at 117 pounds he wouldn’t have been a small addition.
Garlic mashed potatoes with extras. Tasty.

What really can be said about mashed potatoes other then mmmmmmmmmmmm???
YUM! but neither of my boys will touch mashed potatoes…strange, right?! Those do look good and might have to try it anyway!
You know what’s funny? I’ve heard that a lot lately, about kids not wanting to try mashed potatoes…I’m going to have to figure out why and find a remedy for that. Check back soon. Marissa.
yummy. I love mashed potatoes. I usually use a fork because 1. I don’t own a potato masher and 2. I kinda like them chunky. mmmmmmmmmm for sure.
Yum!! those mashed potatoes look yummy. I’ll have to make them for my husband. I swear I have the only kids in the universe that don’t like mashed potatoes. I’ll try these.
Thanks for visiting my site! I’m your new follower!
When I was a kid mashed meant just taters, butter, and milk. But my mother-in-law puts pickels in hers. I am learning you can mix some really good stuff in and make them even better.
Yumm! Potatoes look so yummy. What’s your roommates name?! Southboro is a smaaal town!
Commenting here because you email isn’t attached to your blogger profile (which is totally something I didn’t learn to do myself unti last week -I’m NOT kidding
) and I don’t want to assume you’d come back and read the comments on my post.
Anyway, I didn’t really like Eat, Pray, Love either. I found myself thinking, “It must be nice to take a year out of your life to recover from your divorce…imagine that????” I read it for a book club, but a friend suggested Committed, so I thought I’d give it a go, because it’s less “fluff” than I usually read.
And I LOVE mashed potatoes and am slowly reforming my kids. The Girl Child is on board, still working on The Boy!
Now I understand the mashed potatoes comment! And they were yummy! Thanks for stopping by and hooray for leaving the skins on your potatoes! That’s the best way to have them!
We just had some mashed potatoes 2 nights ago. It was these kind you buy cubed, microwave, mash, and serve. And not bad btw. Thanks so much for stopping by my neck of the blogosphere. And yes, I’m nuts!
Are you trying to kill me with delicious potato recipes? SO YUMMY!!
I love garlic in mashed potatoes!
Mashed potatoes are probably my family’s favorite way to eat potatoes but I never seem to make them. I’ll have to make a batch one night soon.
Alex,
My neighbors thank you! I love Chicken Marsala and know this combo would be amazing. Keep up the good work…and thanks so much.
We LOVE mashed potatoes too! They are total comfort food for me!
