Smashed & Mashed Potatoes
Flavors Used:
With Halloween just around the corner, it’s time to do the Monster mash and make these Smashed & Mashed Potatoes! These fluffy potatoes are the perfect side dish for a nice meatloaf or addition to the Thanksgiving table. These potatoes are full of delicious garlic and cheesy goodness that’ll just melt you in your mouth and have you coming back for seconds and thirds.
The Dan-O’s Original Seasoning gives these potatoes the perfect flavor profile and you could really experiment around here with Dan-O’s Chipotle Seasoning to give these potatoes a southwestern flair. Add some green onions and you’ve got a gourmet set of Smashed & Mashed potatoes. Like whatever Dan-O’s you use, you can also experiment with the cheese and milk. You could use heavy cream for a little thicker and creamier mash, or switch cheeses around for different flavors. Experimentation is everything in the kitchen, so really feel free to experiment and make these Smashed & Mashed Potatoes your own!
