  • Drain the water.
  • Add cream cheese, broth and a pinch of salt & pepper. Beat on high until desired consistently. For "husband smooth" about 5 minutes. ;~)

  • Now... on to the nutrition information. I don't know about you, but ½ cup of mashed potatoes doesn't cut it for me. I'm going for the full cup! ;~) Of course you can half it if you want.
