How I loved Bacon Mashed Potatoes!

I know, potato contains all the vitamins, minerals, proteins and calories necessary for life.

In fact, potatoes are packed full of vitamins and minerals, including iron, potassium more vitamin C than an apple, and vitamins B6 and B1. During World War II, government information leaflets advised Britons to eat ‘at least 1lb of potatoes daily’ to provide vitamin C to ‘prevent against fatigue and help fight infection’.

Nancy08. this was actually a recipe from my grandfather when he was still a Brit:-) it was cheap and potatoes were plentiful. when he came to the US with his bride, he made sure that potatoes were planted every year and my father carried on the tradition — in a much smaller fashion.

mcnerd…oops! I forgot to note that veggie bacon is to be used for vegetarians! I’ll fix it! thanks!

birchbell…thanks for having my back! LOL!
