My family love these types of potato dishes Ive found here on Zaar. The added sour cream gives the dish a nice puffy texture and the garlic gives a little zing. I added some chopped chives for a little colour. Thanks for posting. -
Excellent! Made it for Thanksgiving this year. Tasted even better the next day! I put a scoop of the potatoes in a french onion soup bowl with a large spoon full of gravey on top and baked it in the oven, delicious! -
This recipe was really good. My son who is so picky, loved it. It really is creamy. It is definitely in my shared recipe file. Thank you.

I'm a stay home mom of two little boys.
My husband is a meat and potatoes kinda guy, my little fellas will eat anything, and I'm a vegetarian.
One of my favorite things to do is sit and read a cookbook from cover to cover! My favorite cookbooks are ones with pictures of all the dishes.
