Instant Mashed Potatoes

You should be ashamed of yourself!

Steps to the easiest mashed potatoes:

1. Big pot of water (keeping up with me?)

2. Place potatoes in water - skin on - wash the dirt off ---you probably have eyes all over yours, so take those off and start using your produce in a more reasonable amount of time, loser.

3. Boil until done. Oh right, you probably don't know when they're done - if the knife (the thing you probably should just kill yourself with) slides through the potatoes without crunch or resistance, they're done. Or if you press on them a little and they start to crack open...

4. You have a couple of options (didn't know you had options with potatoes?). Here's where you start whining and bitching, but suck it up - you'll thank me:

a. you can just start mashing and adding liquid (milk or broth), butter or olive oil, salt and pepper

or

b. place the hot potato in a towel and literally wipe the skins off and add your liquid, fat and seasoning

Easy, healthier, tastier and REAL.

Know what's in your food! Make it yourself!!!
