     These were good but I like my potatoes a little creamier so I added a 1/2 cup fat free sour cream. Loved the garlic though! - 3/8/07

     Way too runny. I like to use Swansons Broth, Fat Free No MSG and boil the potatoes in the broth. After wards when you strain them the broth can be added to soup.I put 1/4 cup milk in the microwave and I tablespoon chopped garlic that really gave the garlic taste. Pat in Maine - 3/9/10

     I don't understand why you would cook the potatoes first and then let them sit for 30 mins while you cook the garlic. It seems to me you would cook both at the same time, that way everything is hot and ready at the same time - 4/10/08

     Just rememmber to cut way back on the milk . I use whole milk. but maybe only 1/3 cup. I don't drink milk so this is about the only way I get it. lol. and not very often. - 2/22/08

     We love garlic. Sometimes I'll add 1/4 cup of egg substitute to give them a little more body. - 3/20/07

     Love garlic mashed potatoes. I normally just eyeball the liquid, this cook probably does the same. - 4/15/14

     I used a little bit less skim milk (maybe a cup and a half) and they turned out wonderful! Even my fiancee loved them! We will definitely make again. - 1/4/11

     2 cups of milk for 2 potatoes sounds like a bit much to me. - 9/19/08

     I had to add more potatoes to actually make the mashed potatoes instead of potato soup. I think I'll skip the white pepper next time,or at least cut it down. - 2/21/11

  • CARRIEWILLLOSE
     White pepper has an awful taste -- I always use black pepper. I doubled the garlic. :-) I used 1 C of milk and a little FF sour cream. - 2/24/08
