Scalloped Potatoes Urgent Question
Comments (19)Well, Jasdip I'm glad you were successful with the muffin tin potatoes. I made them yesterday, and they tasted great, but....although I cooked them as long as they were supposed to, only the tops were crispy and even though they were tender they had a good bit of moisture in the cups. Took them to DD#3's for dinner and had I stayed at home I would have paid more attention to the "crustiness". Glad they tasted good because I sure didn't want to waste that good Gruyere cheese. Annie, ignore my semi-failure because they are really good and I may cut the recipe in half and try again. jude...See MoreMake ahead garlic mashed potatoes
Comments (5)I make this recipe every year during the holidays - I know mashed potatoes are one of the easiest things to make, but IMHO it's also one that can be successfully made ahead, so I don't bother when we have lots of other things going on. With the meal you've described, this really would feed 12 as a side dish, so you could either double it for really generous portions and seconds, or just increase by 50% for about the right amount.

Comments (2)I would cook and refrigerate the potatoes but leave the topping off. Then re warm the casserole to about room temperature...perhaps in the micro...put the topping on and bake 15 minutes at 350. Linda C...See MoreMake ahead mashed potatoes
Comments (8)I've made these two recipes when I needed potatoes made ahead of time and reheat them. The first one is also the recipe I use when I have lots of potatoes from the garden and want to freeze mashed potatoes. I recently made the second recipe and it was well received as an alternative to regular mashed potatoes. FREEZER (OR MAKE AHEAD) MASHED POTATOES 5# potatoes (wash well if using whole, or peel if you'd like) Cook as you normally would and drain. Mash and add: 6 oz. cream cheese 1 c. sour cream 1/4 c. butter MASHED POTATO "MUFFINS" Mix together: 3 cups mashed potatoes 1 lg. egg 3/4 c. shredded cheddar cheese 2 T. chopped chives Salt & pepper to taste Divide into a regular\-size 12\-cup muffin tin and bake 350\-degrees F for 30\-minutes. If serving immediately, top with extra cheese and chives. These freeze and reheat well. \-Grainlady...See Moreannie1971
