I would hate to bite into a lump of garlic and was wondering…. Do you need to chopped the garlic up before adding it to the potatoes or is it soft enough that it will just melt into the potatoes as you are mashing them?
Hi Joanna. Roasting the garlic softens it enough that it will have a paste-like consistency when mashed. If you’re worried about it, you could certainly mash the garlic before adding it into the potatoes. 🙂
YUM! I love that you leave the skins on, too – i happen to love the taste/texture of the skins, so i support that move. =) amy @ fearless homemaker recently posted..Raspberry Puff Pastry Turnovers
HOLY MOLY. Feta cheese in mashed potatoes! Feta cheese is my favorite kind – well, it’s that or goat cheese. yummy! But i’ve never put feta cheese into my mashed potatoes before and you are right – thees must make the creamiest mashed potatoes EVER Ashley! I just sent this recipe to my sister. lol she LIVES for mashed taters. We have to make this at home during the holidays. Everyone will go nuts!!!! sally @ sallys baking addiction recently posted..apple butterscotch magic bars.
My husband LOVES mashed potatoes, and my picky 5-year old LOVES feta (I’m talking eating it plain, by the handful–like popcorn. Weird, much?), so I figured these would be a hit at my place. I hope your family likes ’em, too!
Holy cow. I’m usually not a big mashed potato fan since my grandma makes them and tends to use, you know, that powdered mash stuff.. lol. Not exactly my kind of appealing mashed tater, I must say. However, this version looks incredibly easy and INSANELY DELICIOUS. Roasted garlic, bacon AND feta? If you have an extra spot at the Thanksgiving table, I’m down to eat with you guys! This looks SO YUMMY. Hayley @ The Domestic Rebel recently posted..Gingerbread Oreo Pops

I have never bought feta before, but these look fantastic! I mean- garlic, bacon, cream cheese- whew! Delish!
Heather, you could use blue cheese in this recipe also. We just prefer feta in my house, so that’s what I used. 🙂
You didn’t mention making ahead and freezing. What is the best way to do this and still have the full flavor?
You had me at “Butter.”
What a great recipe for a staple! Feta cheese is an awesome way to mix up the flavours!
