Mashed Potatoes Ole
This is a Mexican inspired way to spice up your mashed potatoes!
Ingredients
- 1 box/bag roasted garlic mashed potatoes
- 3/4 c. shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 c. salsa
- 3 TBLSP sliced black olives
- 3/4 c. French Fried Onions
- sour cream optional
- cilantro optional
Instructions
- Make potatoes as directed on box or bag.
- Put in a 2 quart dish.
- Top with cheese, salsa, olives, and french fried onions.
- Bake at 375 degrees for 3-5 minutes until onions are golden.
- Serve with sour cream and chopped cilantro if desired.
Notes
If you want, add a little extra water to the mashed potatoes (so they don't dry out) and put in a crock pot to keep warm for serving to a crowd or taking to a potlock. I did this--- with a quadrupled recipe! If you do it this way, toast the french fried onions separately on a baking sheet, and then add to the crock pot.
