These are the BEST mashed potatoes for two reasons: they are loaded with awesome flavor, plus they can be made three days in advance and refrigerated until you need them. No more doing mashed potatoes at the last minute! This recipe has been in my family for years, and we haven’t made traditional mashed potatoes since.
