Mashed Tater Add-ins

How many things can you add to mashed potatoes to make them different?

1. 2 garlic cloves, crushed
2. replace half the butter with sour cream
3. shredded cheese-any variety
4. Italian herbs
5. instead of butter use cream of mushroom or cream of chicken soup
6. Ham (or any sandwich meat you prefer)
7. mixed vegis-you know the kids are gonna hide them in it anyway!
8. Mushrooms and onions (sauted)
9. instead of butter and milk use stock or bullion cubes & water
10. And last but not least-Spice things up a bit with minced (or finely chopped) hot peppers

You can mix and match any of them or use other things. The possibilities are endless (ok not really but you get the picture) Our favorite is a combination of several of these. Potatoes are very versatile!
