Provided by Brenda.

Categories     Potato

Time 1h45m

Yield 1/2 cup, 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

5 lbs potatoes, peeled and quartered
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup milk (a bit more or less to obtain your desired consistency when mashing the potatoes)
8 ounces smoked gouda cheese, shredded
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 chipotle chiles in adobo, finely chopped
salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F
  • In a large pot, boil potatoes in water until tender but not falling apart, about 20-25 minutes.
  • Drain potatoes and mash with the butter and milk. I use my hand mixer.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • In a large bowl combine potatoes, Gouda, garlic and chipotle peppers; mix well.
  • Put potatoes into a 4 quart casserole and bake, covered, for 45 to 55 minutes stirring once.
  • I like to uncover the potatoes the last 15 minutes or so of baking time to brown the top a little.
  • Potatoes can be made ahead. Mix as above, do not bake. Cover and refrigerate up to 24 hours. Bake as directed or until potatoes are heated through.

3 russet potatoes
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons salt
½ lb ground beef
1 tablespoon taco seasoning

guacamole, to serve

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).

  • In the bowl with the scooped out potatoes, add the ground beef mixture and cheddar cheese. Mix well.
  • Scoop the potato mixture back into the potatoes and top with cheddar cheese.
  • Bake an additional 15 minutes until the cheese is melted.
  • Serve warm with guacamole.

SOUTHWESTERN MASHED POTATOES

This is a side dish I created to go along with a salsa meatloaf I was making. You can adjust the peppers to make it spicier or milder, I found adjusting the chipotle powder made the biggest difference in heat.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes, as they hold their shape well and become creamy when mashed.
  • Don't overcook the potatoes, as they will become watery and less flavorful.
  • Use a potato ricer or a food mill to get the smoothest mashed potatoes.
  • If you don't have a potato ricer or a food mill, mash the potatoes with a potato masher until they are smooth.
  • Add the milk, butter, and sour cream gradually, until the potatoes reach the desired consistency.
  • Season the mashed potatoes to taste with salt, pepper, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and chili powder.
  • For a smoky flavor, add a chipotle pepper or two to the mashed potatoes.
  • For a cheesy flavor, add some shredded cheddar cheese or Parmesan cheese to the mashed potatoes.
  • Serve the mashed potatoes immediately, or store them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
