     Asiago Garlic Mashed Potatoes are cheesy, creamy and delicious!

    These Asiago Garlic Mashed Potatoes will not disappoint. I can’t think of a single food that I have made in more ways than potatoes. They are one of my most favorite foods because they are so versatile (and yummy!). Potatoes can be whipped up in a few minutes, or they can take a few hours. One of my favorite ways to prepare them is mashed. The other thing I love about potatoes is that they go so well with cheese.

    Asiago Garlic Mashed Potatoes combine red potatoes, authentic cheese, garlic, butter, milk, salt and pepper to make an easy and delicious side dish.

    I chose to use Stella® Asiago cheese in this recipe, it gives my potatoes authentic Italian flavor. Creamy red potatoes, garlic, and nutty Asiago cheese go together perfectly.

    Stella® has a wide variety of artisan cheeses that are great in recipes, to top your favorite dishes, or as a snack. Do you have a recipe using artisan cheese?

    I use red potatoes in these Asiago Garlic Mashed Potatoes because the creamy potatoes and the creamy Asiago cheese are a match made in heaven. While I think potatoes are great with the peel left on, I chose to peel half of my potatoes so there isn’t too much of it in this dish.

    Stella® cheese is available in a wedge or shredded. I chose to buy it shredded to make this dish that much easier to make.  I also like to have it pre-shredded so I can add it to salads, eggs, or toasted bread.
