Side dishes often
get short shrift on blogs, taking a back seat to decadent desserts, magnificent
main dishes, and budget friendly casseroles.
But like the secretary in the background who always makes her boss look
good, the side dish can make or break a meal or buffet. I spotted this recipe on the Taste of Home
website and decided to give it a try. I’m
a big fan of potatoes, mashed in particular, but was growing weary of the usual
suspects when it came to mashed potato casseroles. This make-ahead dish gets a lot of zing from
the fresh dill and artichokes, and served four of us easily.

Pattie~ I'm drooling! This would be a main course rather than side dish for me since potatoes are a main food group! I'm pinning and must try!
That seriously looks like the best food EVER! Saving to my favorites now. :)
Oh, this looks sooooooo good. I need to give this a try. Thanks for the recipe. Hugs, Marty
Looks really good, Pattie!..Christine
I would have never thought to add artichokes to mashed potatoes. It sounds wonderful!
