Restaurant-Style Smashed Potatoes

Source- Pioneer Woman

The past few years H and I spend Christmas Day just the 2 of us, so I plan a special meal for just us.  Plans gotten shaken up a bit this year, so we had our special meal on Christmas Eve.  We had sirloin steak with these potatoes.  Amazing!!!

Ingredients
  • 5 whole Large Red Potatoes
  • 1 stick Butter, Softened And Cut Into Pieces
  • 5 slices Bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 2 whole Green Onions, Sliced
  • ¾ cups Sour Cream
  • Salt To Taste (add Plenty!)
  • Freshly Ground Black Pepper To Taste (ditto!)
  • ¾ cups French Fried Onions, More For Topping
Preparation
  • Nuke potatoes or bake in the oven until fork-tender. 
  • Add to a large bowl and smash with a potato masher. 
  • Immediately add softened butter, green onions, bacon, and sour cream and stir with a rubber spatula. 
  • Add salt and pepper to taste. 
  • Add french fried onions and fold in.
  • Serve hot, sprinkling on extra french fried onions and green onions.
 Next Time- Nothing needs to be changed.  These are so good.
