This recipe is terrific! I wanted something different from the standard mashed potatoes as a side to turkey meatloaf and this hit the spot! Thanks for the recipe!

I make this recipe too using more patties and a 9 x 13 pan. We use more half-and-half (3 1/2 cups), no garlic powder (but what a good idea!) and also add parmesan (from the green can). This is very rich and very delicious (and super easy and quick). Can make ahead and refrigerate until baking time, too.
