I used 2lb's of russet (4) potatoes for 3 people. Cutting back the ingredients for 1 7/8 lbs peeled. The first time I had chives from the garden available. This time I used green onion but used fresh thyme in both. No whole milk so I used a mix of 1% & half & half. Great recipe & I plan on serving it often. Thanks Epi !
