This is a life-saver for those big holiday dinners, when you don’t want to be mashing the potatoes at the last minute when there are so many other things to be done! I love that I can make it a day or two in advance, so all I have to do is pop the casserole in the oven when I need it.

Ingredients
- 12 large red potatoes, peeled, cut up, boiled until tender shopping list
- 6 ounces cream cheese shopping list
- 8 ounces sour cream shopping list
- (don’t use low fat or nonfat cream cheese or sour cream…it makes the casserole watery) shopping list
- 1 small onion, diced finely, or a couple tablespoons dried, minced onion shopping list
- ½ cup half and half or whole milk, or enough to get the consistency you want for your potatoes shopping list
- salt and pepper to your taste shopping list
- if you’re a garlic lover, you can add as much freshly minced garlic as you please! shopping list
How to make it
- After boiling potatoes, mash all ingredients together, adding more milk if you want your potatoes creamier.
- Put mixture in well-buttered large, round casserole or 9x13 glass dish.
- Cover and refrigerate up to 3 days (or bake immediately)
- When ready to bake, drizzle ½ stick of melted butter over the top of the casserole.
- Cover with foil and bake at 350 degrees for 35 - 45 minutes; remove foil and bake an additional 15 minutes or until casserole is hot throughout.
- NOTEL You can be creative with this. The last 5 minutes of baking, sprinkle on fried, crumbled bacon and some grated cheddar. Or, for a one dish veggie casserole, place cooked broccoli and cheese sauce on top just before serving. Let me know if you tried any new toppings!
