Golden mashed potatoes is great to serve in place of regular mashed potatoes. I make it often to take to picnics and church socials. From Cindy Stith of Wickliffe Kentucky.

Ingredients

9 large potatoes (about 4 pounds), peeled and

cubed

1 pound carrots, cut into 1/2-inch chunks

8 green onions, thinly sliced

1/2 cup butter

1 cup (8 ounces) sour cream

1-1/2 teaspoons salt

1/8 teaspoon pepper

3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Method 

In a soup kettle or Dutch oven, cook the potatoes and carrots in boiling salted water until tender; drain. 

Place in a mixing bowl; mash and set aside.

In a skillet, saute onions in butter until tender. Add to potato mixture. Add sour cream, salt and pepper; mix until blended.

Transfer to a greased 13-in. x 9-in. x 2-in. baking dish. Sprinkle with cheese.

Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 30-40 minutes or until heated through. Yield: 10-12 servings.
