Thanksgiving is just around the corner and with that all the wonderful foods that we traditionally make and eat and love! This month Alessa’s and my recipes will be a new twist on the old favorites. If your family is anything like mine mashed potatoes and gravy are a must have at our feast. I generally make mashed potatoes the way my mother always did, whipped with butter and a little milk, salt and pepper. I can see them now piled high with a generous amount of gravy. Perfection. . . well I thought so until I made these mashed potatoes. They are so creamy and delicious I will never make my “plain” ones again!
