Steps:
- Place the bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on paper towels.

Steps:
- Peel the potatoes, cut them into 1-inch cubes and place them in a large pot of boiling salted water. Simmer uncovered for 10 to 12 minutes, until the potatoes are tender. Drain the potatoes in a colander and then return them to the pot.
- Meanwhile, heat the milk and butter in a small saucepan until the butter is melted.
- Using a hand held mixer, break the potatoes up and at low speed slowly add the hot milk/butter mixture to make the potatoes very creamy. Add the sour cream, 2 teaspoons of salt and the pepper and whisk to combine. Serve hot.
THANKSGIVING MASHED POTATOES - LOADED!
A friend brought over a pan of these, along with some meatballs & gravy, when we came home from the hospital with our second son who was born on Thanksgiving Day (1991). Since then these have become a "tradition" at our Thanksgiving feast. The great thing about these potatoes is that they can be made as much as a week ahead of time, then just need to be popped in the oven or microwave to be zapped at the last minute (while the turkey is "resting" and being carved). You can work on the gravy--and NOT worry about also mashing the spuds!!!

Steps:
- Quarter the spuds, cook in salted water until tender (25-30 min?), drain well, and mash.
- Add remaining ingredients, mixing well (I use my KitchenAid mixer).
- Butter a large casserole dish, spoon spuds into the pan, smoothing off the top.
- Bake at 350 for 30-45 minutes OR zap in the microwave until heated through.
- WARNING: Taste-testing is addictive!
- SERVE: Stir, then spoon into a lovely LARGE bowl, add a dollop of butter at the top of the mountain.
- Prepare extra copies of the recipe--someone will ask for it!
- Prep time refers to peeling spuds & other prep work AND boiling potatoes.
- Cooking time refers to the time needed to REHEAT in an oven (not microwave) at serving time.
FARMHOUSE LOADED MASHED POTATOES
This is an ideal dish to prepare ahead of time, then pop it in the oven to reheat at meal-time. OR skip the oven part altogether if you can work quickly and get the cheese into the spuds while they're toasty hot (so the cheese melts). Original recipe comes from "Best of Country Cooking 2003" by Reiman Publications with my own personal tweakings (of course)!

LOADED MASHED POTATOES
Tired of the same old side dish, I whipped up this new family favorite. We can't get enough of these loaded mashed potatoes at our house. Often, I'll prepare this casserole ahead and refrigerate it. Then I bake it just before serving. -Dawn Reuter, Oxford, Wisconsin
