Yum. These were really simple and good. I used one packet of instant mashed potatoes for 2 servings and had to fight my grandson to get my share. lol. Thanks Doug for a nice keeper. Made for Best of 2012 Tag.

Great potato dish! Loved the addition of the ranch and the nutmeg was a nice addition too. I made half of the recipe in two smaller ramekins. The potatoes actually puffed up a little while baking which was a pleasant surprise. Nice way to spruce up humble instant potatoes - thanks for sharing the recipe!

Made these a week or so ago (during the switch over to Food.com). A great way to serve instant potatoes! Only change I made is omitted the nutmeg. Will definitely take this recipe with me to the boat . . . the Mexican potatoes are really not edible, hard as rocks. Made for Went to Market!

I liked these - the only change I made was to add 1/2- 1 cup of pureed califlower and no nutmeg. I will make these again and will also make with fresh potatoes.

This is, simply put, a fantastic recipe. I don't use the nutmeg in dishes because DH does not like nutmeg, but otherwise, this recipe is just perfect. The ranch dressing is just right for taking mashed potatoes one step further!
