Garlic Mashed Potatoes
Garlic Mashed Potatoes

I purposely made these garlic mashed potatoes a little chunky because I was serving them with a chicken dish and I wanted them to not just melt away. They are still soft, but when I say chunky it’s only because I used a hand potato masher rather than whipping them with a mixer.

I think they just look so springtime with the scallions! I used heavy cream; however, I usually don’t, but I decided today I would. I have found an alternative to milk with lactose that I use when cooking for my mother, and I can’t tell the difference in it and regular whole milk. Here’s the link, it’s really good if you haven’t tried: https://fairlife.com

Not only are these delicious but they are so easy and quick!! I served these as a side dish for my Roast Chicken Thighs with Peas and Mint! Perfect side dish for the chicken. https://the2spoons.com/springtime-roast-chicken-thighs-with-peas-mint/
