Loaded Mashed Potatoes recipe from @therealkathrineshifts08
Ingredients:
•4-5 medium sized potatoes(for big batch of mashed potatoes)
•1/3-1/2 cup of shredded cheese based on how big of a batch you’re making
•Roughly half of a 16 oz container of sour cream
•3-4 tablespoons of butter depending on the amount of potatoes
•3/4 cup of ranch(more or less depending on how much you like ranch)
•Bacon bits(
Instructions:
Boil your mashed potatoes until soft or cook them in your instant pot(if you have one) for 35 minutes. Put the potatoes in a large mixing bowl and add your butter, then mash the potatoes until the butter is melted and incorporated into the potatoes. Add your cheese and mix until the cheese is melted. Now you want to switch from your potato masher to a sturdy spoon to better incorporate the ingredients. Add your sour cream and mix until smooth. Now add your ranch, mixing in the ranch bit by bit until it reaches desired taste, you probably will have to add more ranch but the half cup is the baseline to start with. You want to be able to taste that hint of ranch more than the sour cream. Add in your bacon bits and make sure it’s all mixed throughly before serving. Enjoy!
