How could I go wrong with these ingredients in mashed potatoes? They were really good and easy to make. I did leave out the bacon because of DH's aversion to bacon but they would have been that much better with the bacon in it. Thanks for posting a recipe I KNOW I'll be using again. Made for Pick~A~Chef Spring 2008.
