From Dansville, Illinois, Lori Piatt shares the secret behind her savory spuds. I dress up instant potato flakes with cream cheese, French onion dip and garlic salt, she explains. I'm always elected to bring these rich potatoes to family get-togethers. Ingredients:
3 cups water |
1-1/2 cups milk |
1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon butter, divided |
1 teaspoon salt |
4 cups mashed potato flakes |
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened |
1 carton (8 ounces) french onion dip |
1-1/2 teaspoons garlic salt |
1/4 teaspoon paprika |
Directions:
1. In a large saucepan, bring the water, milk, 1/3 cup butter and salt to a boil. Remove from the heat; gradually stir in potato flakes. In a bowl, combine cream cheese and onion dip. Stir into potatoes. Add garlic salt.
2. Transfer to an ungreased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Melt remaining butter; drizzle over the top. Sprinkle with paprika. bake, uncovered, at 350° for 30-35 minutes or until heated through. Let stand for 5-10 minutes before serving. Yield: 8-10 servings.
