If you didn’t have a potato masher, how would you mash your potatoes? I might put on some socks, stick my feet in Ziploc bags, then stomp stomp stomp. I think my feet would do a pretty good job of smashing those taters into a pulp.
Your kids might be a little more creative than me, and if they are, you should put their brainwaves to work enter Ore Ida’s new Tools of Mash Destruction Sweepstakes. The top 20 ideas for mashing potatoes will have a chance at $5,000!
Of course this is all in honor of Ore-Ida’s Steam n’ Mash potatoes, which we’ve had the chance to review ourselves. Personally I still used a masher for these, but they’d definitely require much less stomping. LOL!

I love cooking up excotic dishes. It is interesting to have a recipe of sometime I haven’t tried. Lately I am trying to grow my own fresh herbs to cook with.
