Around My Table In Texas

From my corporate office to the kitchen
This is my escape....
Growing up, I spent many hours cooking, gardening, having afternoon tea, traveling, and shopping with my grandmother. Sharing this experience in my home with family and friends is extending the love and kindness shown to me by my grandmother. I can solve the world‘s problems with a day of cooking, reading recipes and strolling through

The creamy frosting complements the tartness of the lemon curd flawlessly, creating a divine flavor harmony. Topped with dried lemon slices for an extra touch.

On my table at Easter 👩🏻🍳 The best Roasted Garlic Mashed Potatoes!! My son’s favorite. Creamy and rich in flavor. Love the roasted garlic. 😊
Ingredients:
12 small to medium russet potatoes
1/2 package of cream cheese
1/2 stick of butter
1/2 cup of shredded Asiago cheese
1/2 cup of shredded Parmesan cheese
1 cup of whole milk
3 garlic cloves, roasted
salt & pepper to taste
Directions:
Cut the top off of the garlic and drizzle with olive oil. Wrap in foil. Place in a 350 degree oven and cook until soft. Set aside.
Peel and cube potatoes. Add to boiling water and cook until soft (fork tender). Place in a strainer to drain all water. In the pot from boiling the potatoes, add whole milk, butter, Asiago cheese, Parmesan cheese, cream cheese and roasted garlic (removed from skin). Turn stovetop on low heat. Melt and stir together. Place potatoes in the melted milk and cheese mixture and stir well. The potatoes will instantly absorb the milk and cheese mixture. If it’s too dry, add more milk and/or butter. With an electric mixture, mix for a couple of minutes until the potatoes are creamy. Add salt and pepper to taste. Add butter and parsley on top.
