We (oops, I must say Bob- the kids wouldn't eat mine) always made a big pot of mashed potatoes once a week. The first night it was mashed potatoes. The second time they became this recipe. The third serving was fried potato cakes.
I modified this recipe to make one AWESOME side dish! First I made mashed potatos mixed with cream cheese, sour cream, salt, pepper and a little bit of milk (my usual mashed potato recipe) and put them in the bottom of glass baking dish, then I sauteed sweet onions in butter and poured the onion and butter mixture on top of the mashed potato layer, then I topped with the american cheese.... YUMMY!!!

A good basic recipe but I added some thinly sliced butter, garlic salt and red pepper flakes for spice
tasty, albeit high in fat. i threw in some green beans and chicken broth, which gave it some additional texture. i made this extra-quick by using the packaged refrigerated carton of mashed potatoes!
Didn't read the review before I made, and then made again like the other reviewer. I liked much better. The American cheese just doesn't do it justice. I added roasted garlic along with the green onions and mozzarella instead of cheddar. Thanks for the base.
My family loved it!
This made a really good side dish. We had some leftover mashed potatoes that were made with milk, Hellmann's and butter. I added about 1/8 cup of milk and mashed that in along with the green onion and sprinkled with a shredded Italian blend of cheeses. I will definitely make this again when there are leftover mashed potatoes.
I just ate this whole thing for lunch by myself. Not bad, not fantastic, but tasty enough - I find mashed potatoes pretty boring, but I do love cheese and onions, so this worked out nicely. I may make this again, as it's so simple to prepare.
A good basic recipe. I prefer to top with a mixture of French-fried onions and shredded soy cheddar.
