Whipped Potatoes Surprise

SERVES: 6

COOK TIME: 25 Min

This out-of-the-ordinary version of creamy mashed potatoes has a lot of pluses added in to make it special. Try our Whipped Potatoes Surprise as a tasty alternative to plain mashed potatoes, and savor the difference.

What You'll Need

6 large potatoes, peeled and quartered (about 3 pounds)
6 medium-sized parsnips, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
2 medium-sized onions, peeled and cut into 8 wedges each
4 garlic cloves, peeled
1 cup sour cream
1 1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

What to Do

Place potatoes, parsnips, onions, and garlic in a soup pot and add enough water to cover. Cover pot and bring to a boil over medium-high heat; reduce heat to medium-low and cook 18 to 20 minutes, or until vegetables are tender.
Drain and transfer to a large bowl.
Add sour cream, salt, and pepper, and beat 3 to 4 minutes, or until creamy.

Note

It's no problem making Whipped Potatoes Surprise a day or two before serving. Just keep it ready in the fridge so all you have to do is heat in the microwave for a few minutes before mealtime.
