Excellant mashed potaotes , lots of flavour. Served them for Easter turkey dinner. Love the onion garlic combo, I was out of thyme and will try it next time and i will be making them again. Also left off the last drizzle of butter to save a few calories. Thanks for posting!!

    Great though I took some liberties with the seasonings. Dropped the Thyme and used evaporated milk in place of the skim, but otherwise was spot on and got rave reviews from the roommates :D

    This was soooo wonderful, Bergy! 6 cloves of garlic is NOT too much, and it made those Texas 1015 onions taste fabulous. This will be my new comfort food. So easy, and so good! Thanks for sharing your recipe.

    Great taters. I followed the recipe exactly except I put potatoes through a ricer instead of mashing them. I also used 1% milk. The onions and garlic turn ordinary potatoes into something special. I served them with roast turkey, stuffing, carrots and green beans. Will be making many more times. Thanks Bergy.
