garlic mashed potatoes- copycat of applebee's
(2 ratings)
A friend of mine who used to work at Applebee's gave me 2 recipes that are close to a couple of my favorite dishes from that restaurant. These are not claimed to be Applebee's actual recipes but rather a close approximation. :) I love these potatoes because they are a bit lumpy and have the beautiful red skins in them. It does take a while to roast the garlic, but that step is so important to making them GOOD! Its the key to this whole recipe.
