Sunday night dinner: Garlic Mashed Potatoes

It's Tuesday and I am still stuck on the weekend. 


It was my turn to go away this week.  (I am currently in Michigan.)

Mr. J and I always try to have a good meal on Sunday as the culmination of the weekend.  As you can see from the photo above we are big meat, starch, and veggie meals.  Mr. J loves potatoes so normally Sunday is a potato dish.  This weekend we wanted to jazz up the potatoes a bit. Being garlic lovers it was an easy decision.

Boil potatoes as normal.



Chop lots of garlic.  


I mean lots.


Saute with butter.  Add garlic mixture to potatoes when mashing with milk.


Perfect way to prepare for the next week.

  1. It looks like you need a "garlic zoom"!! It single handedly has made me cook more.

  2. Garlic Mash is a comforting favorite of mine! How can you fail with potatoes, cream, and butter?! You can't! The garlic just makes it all the better...and the next day you can add a little flour and egg and fry up some potato pancakes for breakfast...nothing better.

  4. I love mashed potatoes, but I have never used those particular potatoes before. It looks really good, so I think I'll give them a try! Plus, all that garlic, it's got to be good.
