I've never been a big fan of mashed potatoes, but these were actually really good. The roasted garlic added a lot of flavor.

These mashed potatoes were a bit too runny for my taste. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I added some chopped fresh herbs to these mashed potatoes, and they were even better. I think I'll always add herbs to my mashed potatoes from now on.

These mashed potatoes were a bit too garlicky for my taste. I think I'll use less garlic next time.
