Mashed potatoes are one of the few things I like as leftovers. I’ll eat anything, but I’m not a huge fan of leftovers. However, if I make a big pot of these Sour Cream and Cheddar Mashed Potatoes, you better believe I’m having them the next day if there are any left. They’re creamy, cheesy and one of my favorite ways to cook potatoes. If you don’t want to make gravy for your mashed potatoes, these are worth a try.
Did you know 49 percent of the U.S. milk supply is turned into cheese?
