Rich and creamy mashed potatoes are topped with cheddar cheese and tomato slices, then baked. Instant mashed potatoes could be used, but I think making your own is the best way. From an Easy Everyday Cooking recipe card. Ingredients:
4 large baking potatoes, peeled and coarsely chopped |
1 1/2 ounces cream cheese, softened |
1/2 cup sour cream or 1/2 cup french onion dip |
1/2 teaspoon onion salt (or to taste) |
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt (or to taste) |
1/2 teaspoon black pepper (or to taste) |
1/2 cup cheddar cheese, shredded |
1 medium tomato, thinly sliced |
2 tablespoons fresh chives, chopped |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 2. Place potatoes in a medium sauce pan and add enough water to cover. 3. Cook over medium-high heat until tender (about 15 minutes). 4. Drain potatoes, return to saucepan and mash in pan. 5. Add sour cream and cream cheese to saucepan. 6. Whip potatoes with a wire whisk (or electric hand-held mixer) until well mixed. 7. Mix in onion salt, garlic salt and pepper. 8. Spoon potato mixture into a casserole dish. 9. Top with cheddar and bake for 20 minutes. 10. Arrange tomato slices on top of casserole and sprinkle with chives. 11. Bake 5 minutes longer. |
