I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my mashed potatoes turned out gluey. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.

The recipe was easy to follow and the mashed potatoes turned out perfect. However, I found the spinach pesto to be a bit bland. I added some extra garlic and Parmesan cheese to give it more flavor.

The spinach pesto was a bit too overpowering for my taste. I would recommend using less spinach or diluting the pesto with some olive oil.
