Garlic Mashed Potatoes and Creamy Mushroom Gravy Recipe



This is one of my favorite gravy recipes! I mentioned it in my Classic Crispy Baked Chicken post a couple days ago! My Mom would make this alot when I was growing up, and it's a great comfort food for me! I've made a few changes, but it still tastes amazing! I also love this mashed potato recipe! The garlic gives it a great flavor. Enjoy!

    If I make mash potatoes at home... My husband tells me he has teeth... He doesn't think I should mash the potatoes before I serve them... although we pound yams into a paste... these look wonderful. Thanks for sharing on Foodie Friends Friday and hope you will join us next week for more great recipes.
