When I was younger it was no problem (I was 88 pounds before I had kids and 107 after ) but as I age 10, 15, 20 pounds have found me and mashed potatoes and home made mac and cheese would only help them to win


I am obligated to add sour cream cream CHEESE parmesan CHEESE and plenty of fresh butter and garlic to my mash

But is is so good

[sugarmamma]

it IS good. That is why I have to limit my mashed potato consumption to special occasions

[Micah my love]

I love potatoes anyway they are cooked

[sugarmamma]

me too. But carbs are a big downfall of mine under the best of circumstances.

I just read an article on carb cycling that sounds pretty promising. The medical profession is getting behind this method as well

[Micah my love]

maybe they are going to ban potatoes

Balcony huh? how fancy! I've never even had a real window before!

I use low fat milk and cream cheese in my mashed potatoes. Everyone always say they are the best they've had.

Admitting that I, too, like Velveeta is almost a "confession". We always call processed cheese "fake cheese" . I generally make my own cheese sauce for nachos mac & cheese, etc, but in a pinch Velveeta works.

Smashed taters with lots of real butter and sharp cheddar rocks!

I always do as well ~ just because that's what I purchase to use myself. I do, however, use real butter

That sounds yummy, I'm going to have to try mp's that way.

I always add sour cream, a little dab of dukes mayo, skim milk and colby and monterey jack cheese to my mashed taters.

Duke's in mashed potatoes????? I have never heard of that!

Someone at work told me to try it and it is good...it doesn't take much though.

How much? Like a Tablespoon in 6-8 potatoes? I suppose I can start with less and add it bit by bit until it tasted perfect
