Have you ever tried garlic mashed potatoes? It's a nice change from the standard fare. Start by just making regular mashed potatoes, and then add 1/2 tsp of chopped garlic. I like to use the prepared chopped garlic because it seems to blend into food better. Whip the garlic in and taste. Add more to your taste. 1 - 1 1/2 tsp of chopped garlic seems the right amount for the couple pounds of potatoes I make. But start with the lower amount of garlic so you don't over-season the mashed potatoes.

You know i have never bought couscous. I have heard it is good. I think I will get some next time I go to the store. I love salisbury steak. I have never made it from scratch but I have had the frozen ones.

Salisbury Steak is one of those dishes that my mom use to make from scratch for us while we were growing up but have never made it myself. Don't really know why I have not made it but have not. I do remember that we always had mashed potatoes with our salisbury steak and used the gravy on the mashed potatoes.

I always serve garlic mashed potatoes or au gratin potatoes with mine.

Ive never actually had Salisbury steak. What is it?
