mashed Garlic Potatoes

[lcsamano]

* 3 lb. small red potatoes
* 5 garlic cloves, minced
* 2 Tbsp. olive oil
* 1 tsp. salt
* 1/8 tsp. pepper
* 1/2 cup water
* 1 cup cream cheese with onions and chives, softened
* 1/3 to 1/2 cup whole milk

PREPARATION:
Halve or quarter potatoes to make even sizes. Place potatoes in a 4-6 quart slow cooker. Add garlic, oil, salt and water and mix to coat. Cover crockpot and cook on high for 3-1/2 to 4-1/2 hours until potatoes are tender.


Mash potatoes roughly with a fork. Stir in cream cheese until blended, then add enough milk for desired consistency. You can serve this right away, or cover and hold it in the slow cooker up to 2 hours on low

This looks delicious, I've never tried mashed garlic potatoes. Thanks for the recipe, I'm gonna try this one of these days.

My sister loves garlic a lot but she doesn't like it when I put garlic straight in my mashed potatoes so instead, I mix cracked garlic cloves into my butter + half and half mixture while I double boil them. I strain off the garlic cloves before I put the butter+half and half mix into my potatoes, of course.
