Garlic Ranch Mashed Potatoes
Ingredients:
Red potatoes, as many as needed (I used four)
Garlic, minced (As much as you can handle. This time I used about eleven cloves. It was the center of the garlic bulb, so they were mostly small)
Butter
Half and Half
Homemade ranch dressing (recipe is below)*
Because I used red potatoes, I left the skins on. If you are using a different kind of potato, peel them first. Wash potatoes. Boil the potatoes until tender. Drain. Or if you are in a hurry or are like me this week and don't have access to a working stove, you can “bake” them in the microwave.**
Once the potatoes are done, plop them into a large bowl. Take potato masher of choice and break them up a bit. Add butter to preference and mash until well incorporated. Add Half and Half. Continue to mash and add half and half until potatoes are creamy.
Stir in minced garlic.
Stir in homemade ranch dressing to taste.
