Hello everyone. Sorry, but I didn't have a chance to share this recipe with you until now. I hosted Thanksgiving at my house and to make things easy, I decided to make Crock Pot Mashed Potatoes. Have you ever made them before? Well these are so easy to make and in a few hours you can have them ready to eat.
You take the potatoes, and wash, peel, and cut them up into small pieces, and just add them to the crock pot.
Add chicken stock, butter, and chopped up garlic.
Set the crock pot on High for 3 to 4 hours and let them cook. When finished I added some milk and just mashed them up with a potato masher.
This is what they looked like when they were done.
This was so easy for me to make for a crowd of 9 people. I used a 5 pound bag of potatoes. We were able to have left overs for our guests and our selves.
For the recipe, I found it on Pinterest HERE.
NOTE: I did not have sour cream or Greek yogurt like the recipe called for and they still tasted great.
I am so happy I made the mashed potatoes this way, and everyone liked them. I liked that I was able to free up my stove for the other food I was cooking.
Have you ever made your mashed potatoes this way? If not you are going to love it!!
Thanks for stopping by and wishing you all a wonderful weekend.

Thanks everyone and enjoy!

What a perfect way to make you potatoes. Oven and stove space is definitely at a premium on Thanksgiving!
ReplyDeleteMy brother had these on Christmas and they were really good (now I'm hoping he didn't use chicken stock though!). EEk! :)
ReplyDeleteThe ultimate comfort food! I like the new look of the blog, Julie.

ReplyDeleteWhoo these look tasty, love potatoes, never tried them in my slow cooker before, need to try :)
Hi Julie, I have been trawling through crock pot recipes just lately and have seen mashed potatoes a few times. I think I will try this to see if they taste any different to normal ones done in a saucepan. I'm hungry now! Take care my friend xx

That sounds easy and delicious. I have one grandchild that could probably eat the whole crock pot full! xo Diana
ReplyDeleteHi Julie! Thanks for stopping by my No Rules Weekend Blog Party!
ReplyDeleteWishing you a wonderful 2016!
These look yummy!! And you have a new look to your blog!! very nice.
ReplyDeleteMy sister does a crock pot recipe, but I believe she uses some butter and milk, and the hand mixer to fluff them up at the end. Like that they stay good and warm in the crock pot and off the stovetop. Thanks for the recipe.
ReplyDeletei made these once...and they were a fail :(
ReplyDeletei found my recipe on pinterest but it did not call for any liquid. the potatoes stuck to the side of the crock pot and browned. they tasted fine, but they were not mashed potatoes.
yours look wonderful, and makes more sense, i will try them this way next time!!!
This would be a great way to make mashed potatoes for Sunday dinner -- no waiting to eat after church! :)
ReplyDeleteThat is really an awesome idea! I'l bet they are so much more flavorful than regular boiled and then mashed potatoes. Thanks for the awesome idea!
ReplyDeleteLove that idea, will remember for our next family gathering!
ReplyDeleteYour crock pot potatoes look wonderful, Julie! I have never made them in a crock pot but this is a great idea especially for a crowd. It would free up your stove top for other veggies too. They look nice and creamy. Thanks for sharing and Happy New Year!
