Roasted Garlic Mashed Potatoes

Kim here...So we are all moved into our new house! We are living country style now! Instead of the daily commuting traffic waking me up, the roosters next door are :). Pretty funny change, but am loving it. Still haven't unpacked my cookbooks yet so here are some more yummy potatoes I love to make.

Roasted Garlic Mashed Potatoes

1 bulb garlic, roasted (see recipe below)
4 baking potatoes
1 cube butter
1/4-1/2 cup milk
Salt/Pepper to taste

Roasted Garlic
(Simply preheat oven to 400 degrees. Take your garlic bulb and cup the top off. Lay it on a square piece of foil, about 6"x6". Drizzle the top of the garlic with about 1 Tbls. olive oil. Wrap it up in the foil and put it in the oven. Bake for about 45 minutes to an hour. Unwrap foil and let cool. You then can squeeze the garlic out of the cloves without unpeeling anything.)

1. Cut potatoes into cubes and put into a pot. Fill with water and bring water to a boil. Boil for about 30 minutes.
2. Drain potatoes and then put back into the warm pot. Add the rest of the ingredients to taste and mash with your potato masher.
