I made these last night with Chicken Fried Steak. They were very good and very simple to make. I didn't use the skim milk (blech) Give me fat or give me death! :o) I also added a handful of chopped chives at the last minute. Yum!

What a lovely, unique way to infuse garlic into mashed potatoes. I left my potatoes unpeeled (the skin's good for you!) and used an electric hand mixer to blend everything. Very nice, thank you!

Different approach to regular smashed spuds. Nice change.

Loved this yukon gold mash with garlic! I like to add some sour cream or cream cheese if I happen to have any on hand. I also bring the potato pieces to a boil in cold water that just covers them. Served it with balsamic relish chicken thighs and sauteed rainbow chard with bacon. Yum!

Wonderful mashed potatoes! This was my first time using Yukon Gold and it makes such a difference. I added 2 tbsp of butter, but I still considered it "healthy". Thanks for posting!

Very good. I used 1/2 cup skim milk for 2 lbs of potatoes. I also used white pepper instead of black, and I leave the skins on. This is our favorite mashed potato recipe!

I used chopped garlic from a jar because it was what i had. The flavor cooked into the potatoes. I just drained the potatoes and whatever garlic clung to the potatoes was enough. Great recipe!

I made these as part of my special Valentine's menu. The potatoes received rave reviews. I left the skins on. I also added a half a stick of butter and a large dollop of sour cream. I used the whip of my KitchenAid mixer instead of a potato masher. The texture was creamy after I made these additions. I also sprinkled in a tablespoon of chopped fresh parsley because I had some on hand and used in a few of my other dishes that night. Thanks for sharing a great recipe.
