    I LOVE this recipe and have made it for several holidays as well as other regular dinners. It is a great alternative to mashed potatoes. I get rave reviews from everyone. The one thing I've changed is the amount of salt which I cut back on. I do like salt but the amount of salt that the recipe calls for makes it too salty.

    I am not a fan of Paula Deen. Well I have made this one and only recipe. I just find her irritating. I have saved a chicken fried steak recipe for later and this one. OH MY GOD!!!!!

    This was the best mashed potatoes I have ever had. I used what I had in my pantry. I added turnips to the recipe and used very small red potatoes. The recipe calls for so much more, but I was trying to make the dish healthier. I am on a low carb diet. My daughter eats nothing I cook or healthy. She asked for this dish again. I will no longer make traditional mashed potatoes. This will be served in my house along side all of my main dishes that call for potatoes. I couldn't believe how tasty these vegetables where together. Thank you Paula!
