MASHED POTATOES WITH CREME FRAICHE AND CHIVES
These mashed potatoes are creamy, fluffy and slightly tangy thanks to the creme fraiche. A ricer is used on the potatoes to make them really smooth, but you could always mash by hand. Simple goodness! From Food & Wine. *Note: the mashed potatoes can be made ahead of time and kept at room temperature for up to 3 hours. Reheat before serving. (You may need to add a bit more milk.)*

GARLIC MASHED POTATOES AND GRAVY
My kids have multiple food allergies, but these simple mashed potatoes and gravy are easy to make for them. We like to serve the spuds with roasted chicken and put gravy over both the chicken and the potatoes. -Suzanne Earl, Spring, Texas
