Garlic Mashed Potatoes is one of my favorite potato recipes. It has a wonderful garlicky taste without being overwhelming and, all things considered, it’s quite easy to whip up too. You can make this recipe up earlier in the day and then heat it in the oven with other foods.
This recipe calls for a modest amount of salt, pepper, and garlic, although I have to admit to liking more of each. This is not a particularly low calorie recipe, but if you’re entertaining it’s a great side dish to serve with just about any kind of meat.
