Smashed Potatoes with Goat Cheese and Chives

November 1, 2009 by Monica Nelson Leave a Comment

Here I have a very easy and fool-proof side that all will love. I like the twist that I played with, by using Goat Cheese. I know right!  So tasty too.

It ends up being RICH without using a whole stick of butter and cream. 🙂 I only use 2 tbs of butter.

You can make this a day ahead;  just re-heat and give a good stir, and then finish by topping with the chives. Enjoy!

Try my other Thanksgiving Sides!

Serves 12

3 lbs peeled baking potatoes, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 1/4 tsp, salt
2 tbs butter
3/4 cup (6 oz) goat cheese, secret ingredient
1/4 cup freshly ground pepper
1 cup milk of your choice, 2% works good here
3 tbs finely chopped fresh chives

1. Place potatoes in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Add 1/4 tsp salt; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer 15 mins or until tender; drain. Return the potatoes to pan over low heat; add remaining 1 tsp salt and butter to pan. Mash the potatoes with a potato masher to desired thickness.

2. Add cheese and pepper to potato mixture; stir until cheese melts. Stir in milk; cook 1 min or until heated, stirring constantly. Remove from heat; stir in chives. Enjoy!
