Above cream cheese mashed potatoes served on 09-03-13 along with broccoli n cheese casserole and Murray's Mexican Meatloaf and were "off the chain good."  The mashed potatoes close-up pixs reminds me of puffy white cumulous clouds.

Above cream cheese mashed potatoes cooked on 01-04-09...A few sequence pixs but "brain locked" doing something else and didn't get the entire sequence....maybe next time....grin if you must!  Those mashed potatoes are wonderful to say the least .

Note:  I didn't use baking potatoes and needed to use up what potatoes I had on hand...a little frugal...I know!

The little vegetable peeler makes easy work out of potato peeling and quick too!

My bride mashing the cooked potatoes with sour cream and cream cheese.  There were a pile of mashed potatoes left over and hope our In-Laws will help us finish them off!  This recipe is for a family or family get together for sure!

If you desire loaded mashed potatoes similar to what Chili's serves, leave the peeling on about 1/3 of the potatoes!
