First up is our recipe for Classic Mashed Potatoes. These creamy, fluffy, kid-friendly mashed potatoes get their texture from
butter, milk, and a touch of sour cream. If you're looking to try something just a little different, replace a few potatoes
with celeriac (also known as celery root). Most kids love the sweet flavor, and celeriac is full of vitamins.
