I love this recipe! I made it a few years ago, loved it, and looked for it again. So glad I found it. Just made it yesterday for a Christmas party and it was a hit with the entire family, including my picky children! Wish I would've thought to look at Sam's for the Manchego cheese, since it is pricy. Now I know. : And I will definitely make this again and again!

This is absolutely my favorite recipe for mashed potatoes. I lost my recipe and was estatic when I found it on the web by just typing RR mashed potatoes and manchego. If you folks have a Trader Joe's, you can get Manchego at a reasonable price or maybe try the other Spanish cheese, Iberico. Yummy!

These potatoes are an absolute HIT at my house! My teenage boys can't get enough of them! The cheese is expensive however, so we only make this at Thanksgiving and Christmas, but that makes them even more special. (Sam's Club sells it for about 1/2 what our grocery store does. I always put in more cheese than is called for, but it's not necessary - we are just cheese lovers here. I'd never heard of "manchego cheese" before, but it's absolutely delicious. This recipe is one of my family's favorites, that is certain.
