We loved these mashed potatoes and the rosemary adds a nice flavor. My chives werent looking their best so I subbed onion powder. The garlic smells so good while cooking with the potatoes. I didnt have white pepper so I used black pepper. These potatoes are very nice for a family meal but would be extra special for a dinner party too. Will be making these again! Made and reviewed for Lorac's Cookathon - see you soon hon!Reply

These were so good! I used margerine and 1% milk and they were still really delicious. Thanks for the recipe!Reply
