Parsley Smashed Potatoes image

I love potatoes but hate all the work involved in making mashed potatoes from scratch. I came up with a simple side dish that was made even easier thanks to my slow cooker. Save the leftover broth for soup the next day! -Katie Hagy, Blacksburg, South Carolina

I thought the parsley flavor was a bit too strong, but my husband loved it.

My potatoes didn't turn out quite as crispy as I would have liked, but they were still very tasty.

The potatoes were so fluffy and creamy on the inside and crispy on the outside. The parsley added a delicious flavor that really made the dish.
