Make Mine Mashed Potatoes

(from Frozen Assets)

8 servings

5 lbs. of potatoes, peeled and quartered (I didn't peel mine)
1 egg
1 Tablespoon minced garlic
1/2 tsp. pepper
6 oz. sour cream
shredded cheese of your choice (optional)
1/4 cup butter, melted

Cook potatoes in boiling water until tender. Drain. Combine all ingredients except cheese and butter in a large mixing bowl. Mix or mash well. Spoon potatoes into a 9x13-inch casserole dish coated with cooking spray, or used disposable aluminum pans. Warm butter in a saucepan over low heat, being careful not to scorch. Drizzle over potatoes.

To freezer: Cover and freeze. If using cheese, place in a zip-top bag and attach to potato dish.

To serve: Thaw. Warm in a 375-degree oven for 40 minutes or until heated through. Sprinkle cheese on top and continue cooking until cheese has just melted.
