My children love mashed potatoes so lately I have been testing them to see what they will stand for in them. Here are the results:
Spinach -Yes! Just saute in a little olive oil and add to potatoes after boiling and before mashing.
Turnips- Yes! These were undetected yet added a very good flavor. Dice one turnip (because they are tougher) and boil with quartered potatoes.
I also have added carrots. This did not go over well at all and I haven't done it since.
I also like to add 3 garlic cloves to the water before boiling. They will disappear but you will notice the difference.
Always add sour cream or cream cheese once the potatoes are mashed.
Season with McCormic Montreal Steak Seasoning. It makes them so much better.
