I'm not a big fan of black olives, but I'm willing to try this recipe because the goat cheese sounds amazing.

I would love to try this recipe, but I don't have any goat cheese. Can I substitute another type of cheese?

This recipe is a great starting point, but I like to add a few extra ingredients to make it my own. I usually add some chopped bacon and green onions.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my mashed potatoes turned out gluey. I'm not sure what went wrong.

I was hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a big fan of goat cheese, but I was pleasantly surprised! The goat cheese flavor was subtle and creamy, and it paired perfectly with the black olives.
