  • “Good mashed potatoes, Bergy! They went well with the Irish pork dish we did for St. Pat’s day.The recipe was easily halved for two, I did add a dash of cayenne instead of regular pepper.Thanks for sharing a good one.”

  • “Made these for St Patricks Day dinner. These were GREAT! The green onion flavor was fantastic!”

  • “Delicious and very easy! A nice twist on classic mashed potatoes! Warming the scallions in the milk gave the entire dish a subtle scallion flavor. I will definatly make this again! Thanks!”

  • “This is an amzing dish. Warming the milk (I sometimes use cream) with the green onions makes the flavor so intense. I use red potatoes and the added color of their skins is nice. I think Yukon Gold potatoes would be delicious too.”
