Buttery Bacon & Brie Mashed Potatoes

In times of stress, I find that canceling all my plans and staying in to make cheesy mashed potatoes generally helps. Cheesy mashed potatoes doesn’t fix anything, but it does put a little cushion between you and the problem whatever form the problem might take. And like all things, mashed potatoes taste better with bacon and cheese. Everyone who has tasted these Buttery Bacon & Brie Mashed Potatoes asks how to make them. With a liberal amounts of both cheese and bacon, this decadent mash is a treat for the taste buds.

In the time it takes for it to cook through, I like to get the rest of the meal going. I brown sausages and wilt a big bunch of greens in the same pan. I have a glass of whatever wine is open in the fridge. By now, things are looking up, like sunshine after the rain. A combination of flavourful cheeses and salty bacon takes these to the next level. Rich and creamy, they will add a decadent flair to your next family meal.
