MAKE AHEAD MASHED POTATOES

These are Awesome!  They turn out so fluffy and  everyone loves them that comes to my house. I don't put the chives or spices in them.  I use 10 pounds of potatoes so I have to adjust everything.

  I cook mine the old fashion way (boil in water).  Mash and Mix Everything.  Put them in my Crock Pot.  Set overnight in Fridge and turn the Crock Pot on in the morning.

Mashed Potatoes in Advance

5 or 6 potatoes

½ c. ho****er

2 T. butter

¼ c. milk

1 – 3 oz. cream cheese

¾ c. sour cream

1 T. chopped chives

½ tsp. garlic salt

1 tsp. paprika

Microwave potatoes & water in 2 qt. flat casserole covered about 15 min. on high (May be done usual way)

Drain – Mash beat in milk, cream cheese, sour cream, chives and garlic salt.  Cover and refrig. until time to serve.  Microwave covered 8 to 10 minutes at med. High.  Serve garnished with paprika.  It will serve 6 to 8 people.

Potatoes can be made and mashed the way you usually do.  Do not put as much milk in the potatoes, they should look stiff, then add cream cheese and sour cream, if you feel after you added the cream cheese and sour cream that it needs more milk, then add it.  You do not need to add chives, garlic salt and paprika.

sounds wonderful.  I never thought about cooking them in the beginning in the microwave or reheating them.  but I guess if you can buy them frozen, they reheat just fine.

I added some changes Price. I don't use the microwave.

Now I understand.  I kept wondering where the crock pot came in.
