The secret to making mashed potatoes extra-flavorful is cooking them in Swanson® Chicken Broth. They're mashed until smooth and creamy, with just the right amount of butter and cream to make a homestyle potato side everyone will enjoy. These creamy mashed potatoes are an essential holiday side dish, but they're great any day- we love them as a side with steak or chicken.
Ingredients
- 2.5 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes , peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
- 2 cups Swanson® Chicken Broth
- 0.5 cups half and half
- 2 tablespoons butter
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
-
1
Place potatoes and Swanson® Chicken Broth in a 3-quart saucepan. Heat over high heat to a boil, then cover and cook (still on high) for 10 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.
-
2
Drain the potatoes, reserving the broth.
-
3
Mash the potatoes with the cream, butter and about 1/2 cup reserved broth (the consistency will vary depending on the type of potatoes used, so you may want to add more of the reserved broth- see ingredient note). Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.

Rice with red bean sauce is a tasty treat I taught myself to make when I was snowed in and couldn't get to the grocery store. Tasty and easy to make.
Busy Day Chicken Rice Casserole
This is my family's favorite one dish meal - mine too, since it is so easy to put together! I use skinless, boneless chicken breasts but mixed chicken pieces can be used, too. I also use the low fat, low sodium canned soups and the taste is still great!
