Baked Goats Cheese Scallion Mashed Potatoes - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
6 medium potatoes, coarsely diced (if using organic no need to peel them)
3 tablespoons goat cheese (cream cheese)
2 tablespoons milk
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg, freshly grated
1/8 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded (divided)
1/2 cup cheddar cheese, shredded (divided)
3 scallions, sliced (use white and green parts)
Preparation
-
Place potato cubes in a pot with water. Bring to a boil and let simmer for 15 minutes or until tender when pierced with a fork. Drain.
Return potatoes to the pot and add cream cheese and milk. Mash with a masher until rather creamy. Season with garlic, nutmeg and salt to taste.
Now add in HALF of the mozzarella and HALF of the cheddar cheese (meaning 1/4 cup of each). Mash a little more.
Add in scallions, mix well.
Pour mashed taters into a 9X13 baking dish and sprinkle with remaining cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven at 180\u00b0C/350\u00b0F for 20-25 minutes or until nicely browned on top. If you like the top very brown, you can put the dish on the top rack for the last 5 minutes.
Enjoy!
