This is another recipe that is a favorite of mine at holiday meals. I make it now almost every time I make mashed potatoes. Its also another one I had to think about how much of what I was using so I could write it down here.

Baking the mash potatoes brings out the flavor of this dish. I always use my kitchen aid mixture to mash and mix this as well. You can also make this dish in the slow cooker. Just cook on low for 1-2hrs.

This was a favorite of mine growing up. I don’t make it as much as I should but I enjoy it when I do.
