Bacon-Scallion Mashed Potatoes

Bacon-Scallion Mashed Potatoes

2 pounds potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2 inch chunks
4 cloves garlic, peeled
5 slices bacon, cut in 1/2 inch pieces
1 cup scallion top, thinly sliced
1/2 cup milk, warmed
1/2 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Cook potatoes and garlic in a large pot with lightly salted water to cover
13-15 minutes until potatoes are fork-tender.
Meanwhile fry bacon in a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat until crisp.
Drain on paper towels. Pour off all but 1 t. drippings. Add scallions; saute
1 minute or until soft, but not brown. Add bacon.
Drain potatoes well and return to pot. Mash, adding milk, sour cream, salt,
and pepper. With a wooden spoon, beat in scallions and bacon. Reheat if
necessary.
