Vanilla Bean Mascarpone Mashed Potatoes

Mascarpone cheese adds a creaminess to these potatoes that is unmatched. Don’t let the vanilla bean scare you! The flavor is subtle and plays nicely with others. Make it extra fancy but adding a little parmesan cheese on top and hitting it with the brulee torch! Recipe here.

Tartiflette

You really can’t go wrong with potatoes, bacon, onions, cheese and wine – and that’s all you’ll need for this traditional French dish – tartiflette! Recipe here.

Mashed Sweet Potatoes with Rice Krispie Topping

Skip the regular potatoes and go straight to the sweet potatoes! Brandon at KitchenKonfidence.com says “…the crunch of the topping is the perfect counter to the rich, creaminess of the potatoes. And the rosemary and cayenne provide pops of flavor that liven up each bite.” Recipe here.

Hasselback Potatoes

Maximize your potato crispiness with impressive-looking hasselback potatoes from Feasting at Home. I think thyme would also be great in place of the rosemary. Recipe here.
