Southwest Mashed Potatoes Recipe

Recipe by: Kristin Licavoli

"I was experimenting with a side dish that would compliment chipotle lime chicken, and this is what I came up with. Baby red potatoes are cooked with the skins on, mashed, and peppers and onions are sauteed and added to mashed potatoes. Enjoy!"
