took the day off yesterday to be present with my loves. always grateful for each day I get to spend making memories with them in this life 💛 truly nothing makes my heart happier

the annual thanksgiving dilemma of "how the f am I

the annual thanksgiving dilemma of "how the f am I going to cook and reheat all of this stuff on my stovetop in time for dinner?!" is solved with these creamy slow cooker mashed potatoes! they're made entirely in the slow cooker, and can be reheated in it, too. you can even make them a day ahead of time.⠀
⠀
the potatoes are cooked in the slow cooker with garlic in chicken or vegetable broth for extra flavor, then mashed with butter, sour cream or greek yogurt, and unsweetened almond milk (or regular milk).⠀
⠀
I like to keep the potato skins on for a little texture, but totally fine to peel em if you prefer! tap the link in my bio to get the #AmbitiousThanksgiving recipe 💛

my dad's cheesy au gratin potatoes are famous on pinterest and #1 in my heart 🧀🥔 add this vegetarian side made with 3 types of cheese — cheddar, gruyere & parm — to your thanksgiving table, ppl!⠀
⠀
they're unbelievably delicious on their own, but here are some fun ways to jazz up these taters:⠀
🥓 add bacon or ham⠀
🧀 switch up your cheeses. feel free to replace the gruyere with extra cheddar, smoked gouda or pepperjack!⠀
🍞 add breadcrumbs or crushed ritz crackers for a crunchy topping⠀
🍠 use sweet potatoes instead of yukon golds⠀
