Slow Cooker Mashed Potatoes
If you have ever had one of those times, where you needed to use up pounds of potatoes, this is the recipe for you!
I had forgotten that I already had a pound bag of potatoes and bought another..and well I certainly didn’t need 10 pounds sitting around, so, I whipped up a big batch of mashed potatoes.
Luckily, the entire family loves them!
I have since now made these mashed potatoes for several holiday meals (Thanksgiving & Christmas) and have taken them along to potlucks when I have been assigned to bring a side dish.
Always a big hit!

Nutrition

I love this idea….can I just mix in the crockpot without taking the potatoes out and mixing and then placing back?
Yes you can, now I use a liner, so I was concerned that I would rip the bag, however if you don’t use a liner…I would go right ahead and just mix it right up in the crock pot. I’m a liner addict LOL…
lol…..Thanks…I’m going to be trying this soon:)
