Mashed Potato Recipe:
10 pound bag russet potatoes
3 sticks butter
2 packages (8oz. each) cream cheese
1 cup sour cream
1 t. seasoning salt (or to taste)
1/2 t. pepper (or to taste)
1/2 t. garlic salt (or to taste, or fresh minced garlic if preferred)
Directions:
Peel all potatoes then cut into about 1" pieces. Boil mashed potatoes (5lbs at at time). Mash in large bowl then add 1/2 the amount of butter, 1/2 the amount of sour cream, 1/2 the amount of cream cheese and 1/2 the seasonings. Mash until all mixed. Scoop into large casserole dish. Repeat with the other 1/2 of ingredients. Scoop rest into casserole dish and mix around. Refrigerate up to 2 days. Take out of fridge 2-3hrs. before baking. Top with pats of butter. Bake @ 350 for 20-30min. Enjoy! And only eat celery for the next two days.
Note: this recipe can be halved for a normal gathering. We happen to have a lot of people getting together for Thanksgiving tomorrow. Also, if you want to add some 1/2 & 1/2 to change the consistency of the mashed potatoes you can.
