These are the best! I doubled the recipe when my husband came into a great deal on 10#s of potatoes. Then I froze some in zipper bags and some in 6 oz glass dishes. Once frozen, I popped them out of the dishes and into zipper bags, so we could cook individual portions. Great for teenagers with wacky schedules.

These do not turn out creamy like regular mashed potatoes. They are more the texture of a baked potato. The flavor was good and they were pretty easy to put together. I have one batch in the freezer, and I made the second batch today start to finish, and served with Beef Tips. The only change I made was to include the skins rather than peeling. This might be good to have on hand.

These didn't make it to the freezer but I prepared them the night before they were needed. They were a hit and two guests went home with the recipe
A real 'keeper' for me

These were very good. To make these for freezing, I don't think I'd use less than 10 pounds of potatoes (doubling the recipe), but I don't think I'd do more than that at one time either. I was able to double the recipe without it really being any trouble, but I think if I had tried to make more than 10 pounds of potatoes at once, it would have been too much on time and clean up. As it was, doubling the recipe didn't really take too much longer, and the clean-up was about the same as if I hadn't doubled it. The best part is that I now have TWICE as many yummy potatoes in the freezer for when I want them!

I am so glad I found this recipe. We just think they are great! I make only slight changes due to personal preferences. # 1, after potatoes have cooked and drained, I put them back into pot and throw a linen towel over them and set the pot on a burner set on low so the potatoes dry out and steam to fluffy goodness. After that I use a potato ricer before whipping. We do not like lumps in our mashies. #2, I use more butter and season a little heavier. Thank you so much for a wonderful idea.

These potatoes will definitely become a staple in my house! I tried this recipe specifically for http://www.recipezaar.com/294235, but I actually had some left over and have them frozen now for a later date. I adore mashed potatoes, and my BF prefers rice, so it will be nice to be able to eat them when I want ^_^ Next time I will split it into two bowls because mashing it all in one bowl was kind of difficult, but I really enjoyed the flavor and texture, and will definitely be making it again!! Thank you!!
