Oh, I just love this recipe. It's so delicious and very easy, with just five ingredients. Make it for Thanksgiving or a winter potluck party.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 3 lb. small red potatoes
  • 5 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 1/8 tsp. pepper
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 cup cream cheese with onions and chives, softened
  • 1/3 to 1/2 cup whole milk

PREPARATION:

Halve or quarter potatoes to make even sizes. Place potatoes in a 4-6 quart slow cooker. Add garlic, oil, salt and water and mix to coat. Cover crockpot and cook on high for 3-1/2 to 4-1/2 hours until potatoes are tender.

Mash potatoes roughly with a fork. Stir in cream cheese until blended, then add enough milk for desired consistency. You can serve this right away, or cover and hold it in the slow cooker up to 2 hours on low. 14 1/2 cup servings
