"My go-to recipe for garlic mashed potatoes. I like to add a little seasoned salt while mashing. Also, don't be shy with the garlic."
-ChefWendyMG
"Oh wow, this was outstanding! The mash was very creamy, with a lovely chive flavor, and the baking resulted in a very yummy crust."
-Lalaloula
"This is an excellent, hearty potato recipe. The flavors were strong enough to stand on their own, so extra butter or sauces were not necessary."
-JoAnn
"So delish! We thought they tasted pretty close to Applebee's. Next time I'll make the potatoes a little lumpier to make them an even closer version."
-chef amelia bedelia
"What a great twist on mashed potatoes! I used frozen cauliflower and regular milk and we loved it. This is a great, healthier way to make an old standby."

"This is a great recipe to pop in the oven when needed. You end up with creamy potatoes with a crisp topping."
-Rita~
"These had the perfect amount of garlic flavor. Plus, these had a nice and creamy texture, and that made them seem much more fattening than they really are."
-HokiesMom
"This recipe is a nice variation on traditional mashed potatoes. The color is just incredible, and the carrots add a nice sweetness."
-dianegrapegrower
"These are perfectly wonderful and cheesy. I loved the crumb topping with the garlic flavor. They looked fantastic coming out of the oven, all toasty brown on top."
-Kim127
"Everyone loved the corn and carrots. Plus, the jalapeno did not add heat but added a really great, subtle under-note of flavor."
-hollyfrolly
"I made this with new red potatoes and then mashed them with the skins on. I also used extra-sharp cheddar cheese. This tasted great!"
-petlover
"I found these to be quite rich. I used the smaller amount of chipotle powder and was happy with the amount of heat. These take a bit of extra work, but it's definitely worth it."
