Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large russet potatoes
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup cooked bacon crumbles
- 0.5 cup sliced green onions
Instructions
Peel the russet potatoes and cut them into large chunks for even cooking.
Place the potato chunks in a large pot and fill it with enough water to cover them. Add a pinch of salt to the water.
Bring the water to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and easily pierced with a fork.
Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Mash them using a potato masher or an electric hand mixer until smooth and fluffy.
Add the butter to the mashed potatoes and mix until fully melted and incorporated.
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until it melts into the potatoes.
Fold in the cooked bacon crumbles and half of the sliced green onions, saving the other half for garnish.
Taste the mashed potatoes and add salt and pepper as needed.
Transfer the mashed potatoes to a serving dish and top with the remaining sliced green onions for garnish.
Serve warm and enjoy your Simply Loaded Mashed Potatoes 5fix!
