Really great flavour! Very creamy & rich-tasting even though I used fat free evaporated milk. I loved the amount of pepper but it was a bit of a kick - I would cut back a bit if serving to guests that weren't into spicy foods. The colour was a little odd but the potatoes looked fine next to some bright veggies. -
oops,I posted the wrong pic,Please remove my veggies(sorry) However,Very good mashed potatoes :) -
Great recipe! I left out the basil and used regular milk. I also mashed them lightly with a potato masher to keep a bit of texture. Thanks!

After DH and I moved away from the farm, and to the city...I haven't done as much cooking and very little canning. But I do come to Zaar and look for new recipes once in a while. I'm still cooking Zaar!!
I like to play at Facebook, with my family and friends. A lot of my Zaar friends are there!! Yay! It's a good way to keep in touch.
We travel more. We're looking at the European trips now. Hope to go in the springtime. I really want to see London, I think I lived there in a past life, I've been obsessed with it since I was 10 years old!!
