CHEDDAR CHEESE MASHED POTATO CASSEROLE
I used this recipe a lot when my kids were younger and it was helpful to have part of supper ready ahead of time. Especially because babies ALWAYS seem to be fussy when it is time to make dinner. Works great for company or potluck too.

CHEESY MASHED POTATOES
Everyone who has tasted these cheesy mashed potatoes asks how to make them. Since this comforting casserole bakes at the same temperature as my chicken bundles, I get it started in the oven and pop in the entree a little later. -Brad Moritz, Limerick, Pennsylvania
