I love Champ, and this recipe reminded me of Grandma McKibbin's traditional Champ dish prepared every St. Patrick's Day and for most family dinners. I used Russet potatoes, but I think Yukon Gold potatoes would be a perfect match for this recipe. Thanks for a great recipe, Jackie OhNo!

I love champ,and this version was very easy and very tasty..not to mention easier on the waistline than the original version,which is loaded with cream and butter.I did miss the decadence of the cream a little,but felt far more virtuous eating this version rather than the heavy guilt that I usually feel. A great dish that is always welcome on my plate!! Thanks JackieOhNo!Made for PRMR.
