Crockpot Smashed Potatoes





Love using the crockpot, and LOVE having it for side dishes!
{How fabulous to not be boiling potatoes right as the main dish is ready!}

This sweet thing ate them up.



----------------
Recipe:

2-3 pounds red potatoes, either quartered or diced
1 garlic clove
1 tablespoon of olive oil
1/2 cup water
1/3 cup onion & chive cream cheese {from a tub}
1/2 - 1 cup milk
1/2 a stick of butter
Directions:

Place potatoes, garlic, olive oil and water in crock pot. Stir well. Cook on LOW for 6-8 hours or on HIGH for 4-6 hours.

{I cooked on HIGH for 4 hours and they were perfectly tender}.

When they're tender, mash with the back of a large fork.  Stir in cream cheese, butter, and milk until they're the consistancy you want them to be.

Add kosher salt and pepper to taste!

SO easy. SO good!
