    I usually like Ina's recipes but I wasn't feeling this one. Laked flavor, seemed kind of heavy (and I used 2% milk. Just wasn't all that impressed and won't do again. Always looking for a new mashed potato recipe because I like them with just some butter, milk, salt, and whipped up, but my husband doesn't like them like that. So I will continue to search.

    As usual Ina knocks it out of the ballpark! I had to make a couple substitutions. I used whole milk b/c I was out of half and half and I only used half of the recommended amt of butter. They are the best mashed potatoes I've ever made and the hubby loves them too! These potatoes will definitely be made again and again!

    These mashed potatoes are yummy! Using the food processor makes them lovely and smooth - a solution for those of us who don't have food mills! The Parmesan doesn't exactly add a very "Parmesan" taste... it just adds a nice salty, nutty undertone! This is definitely my go to recipe for mashed potatoes now! This would probably be a great base to add other things to - herbs, spices, etc!

    Great flavor & texture - I will definitely make these again. Perhaps next time I'll reduce the fat content of the half & half - I don't think it would hurt the recipe.

    SO good!! This was my first time EVER making real mashed potatoes and they came out AWESOME! My BF LOVED them! They are super simple and SOO delicious!! I did cut the butter down a bit, and added more parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, as I tasted. The perfect mashed potato recipe for ANY occasion! Made these with stuffed peppers, mmm mmm! These are a MUST try!!

    Hands-down my favorite mashed potato recipe, EVER!! I make these all the time, including every year for the past 3 years for Thanksgiving, and I swear they've made me famous! I always toss 4 or 5 peeled garlic cloves in the pot with the potatoes, which makes them more mild and much easier to smash once everything is drained.

    I know that mashed potatoes are a typical fat-laden dish, and that many people think that's how they should be...however, I'm a health nut and always try to make recipes lighter and healthier. In this case, I always use non-fat half-and-half, non-fat sour cream, and about 1/4 of the butter. I'm sorry, but there is NO reason why anyone should put a whole stick of butter in potatoes, it completely ruins any chance you have of benefiting from the healthy properties of potatoes, like fiber and protein. I promise, you won't miss it!

    Love Ina's recipes,yet over on Parmesan.Rather,try regular Mashed Potatoes recipe and add Chevre/Goat's Cheese at the End.Does not "melt" 100%,yet a terrific and tangy flavour that requires less than more.Parmesan can be expensive.Also,can try Marscapone.Still Italian and not as Tangy and Salty.Soooo delicious!
