It was delicious, but I used lite sour cream and a tiny bit of miracle whip instead of mayo to make it less calories, and I don't like mayonnaise too much. I also used a clove of garlic and some chopped white onion that I let sautee before I put the potatoes and milk and such. I didn't skin the potatos either.... I like skin in potatos....

These are delicious. Creamy, tasty. I didn't have use bacon as it looked all fat at the shop but instead used chopped honey ham, lightly seared in a teaspoon of marg, and skipped the chives because we had none, and son would have whinged about the green bits! These were very tasty and made a great change to normal old mash. Tks KC!
