Recipe

i never make mashed potatoes because by the time they taste good you have added 1 lb. of butter, salt, milk and who knows what else and i don't feel like they are good for you. i found this recipe that is much healthier and was really yummy.

Garlic Mashed red potatoes

8 red potatoes, quartered ( i just used the little 2 lb. bag they come in probably 12-14 potatoes)

3 cloves of garlic

2 Tbs. butter

1/2 C. milk, warmed

1/2 tsp. of salt

1/4 C. parmesan cheese

place potatoes and garlic in large saucepan, cover with water. bring to a boil. reduce heat and simmer for 20-25 min. or until fork tender. drain well. place back in pan. add butter, milk, and salt. Mash or i just used a handmixer until it's the texture you like. stir in parmesan cheese.

i didn't add the garlic to the water, i added a little minced garlic to the potatoes. i left the skins on which i love but you can peel them if you don't like the skins but it is more nutrients. no butter or gravy is needed!
