Garlic Mashed Potatoes

Ingredients

10 potatoes
3/4 head of roasted garlic
1 stick butter
Half and half (I used about half a pint size container)
Chives
Salt + fresh ground pepper

Directions

1. Cook potatoes ( peel and cut the potatoes into large wedges and boil for 20-25 min, until fully cooked)
2. Mash potatoes with:
   • garlic
   • butter
   • salt
   • pepper
   • chives
3. Drizzle in half and half while mashing to get desired consistency
4. Garnish with chives
   *because I made it ahead of time , I added some water too, to keep the potatoes from getting too dry
   *this recipe takes a lot more salt than the vegan one

Roasted Garlic

1. Remove outer layers from garlic head
2. Cut off top to expose garlic cloves
3. Place on piece of aluminum foil
4. Drizzle olive oil over garlic, so it soaks in and is fully coated
5. Wrap in aluminum
6. Cook in 400° oven about 30 min until cooked through (I started checking it at the 25 min mark)
7. Remove cloves and mash
