My recipe adds a bit more kick than "a pinch of salt." I like semi-spicy and flavorable mashed potatos; if you do too, read on: *Roast a whole garlic in the oven for 45 min *Prepare potatos as aforementioned, except leave the skins on. *Finely dice 1 serrano pepper; so fine that you cannot see it in the finished product, but taste it no doubt; Add it to the boiling water with the potatos. *When the potatos are done, mash them in a bowl with the roasted garlic (peeled of course!) *Add a little milk and butter for creaminess *Sprinkle a few dashes of Cayenne Pepper, continue to mash Walla! Delicious Garlic and spicy mashed potatos! ENJOY! -

When the potatoes are mashed and ready, mix in some chopped basil leaves, peppercorns, rosemary and bacon bits. Mix them in with any old wooden spoon. -

Try adding about 2 tablespoons of cream cheese! Add more or less to taste. This makes it mega smooth and creamy and the flavor is awesome! -

Up to four hours before the meal, you can mash potatoes and put them in a crock pot on LOW (1) with lid. They will stay warm and fluffy until ready to serve. Be sure to put a little water in the crock pot while mashing again. -

Adding carrots (cook with potatoes and carry them along) makes for a colorful and tasty treat. -

Instead of mixing in only 2 tbs. of unmelted butter, put in 6 tbs. for four medium potatoes. Add to the potatoes and mash in. The more butter the better! -

Fluff potatoes with an electric hand mixer instead of mashing them. Season with garlic pepper seasoning and add sour cream, shredded cheese, crumbled bacon and chives. -
