This was SO great!. I used leftover mashers for this recipe, although it would be fairly quick to whip them up for this recipe as well. I made a few minor alterations- to the mashed potatoes, I simply added some of that precooked microwave bacon(it was only 30 seconds to nuke and chop), Then I omitted the pepper - I simply added my chopped bacon, chopped green onion, cheddar, and I added about 8 oz. of sour cream- mixed it up and sprinkled the remaining cheddar on top- and these were fantastic! Even my picky hubby and 18 mo. old loved them. Thanks for the great recipe!

This recipe was soooo good! The family ate it up! Made the mashed potatoes with lots of butter and half and half, used 1 cup crumbled feta cheese in the mix and a parmesan mixture on top. The flavor was so yummy!! I added more potatoes then recipe says and it was still great!
