16 servings 
Serving size: 192 g
Calories per serving: 224

5 lbs sierra gold potatoes or 5 lbs red potatoes, diced with peel 
1 cup water 
1 cup butter, cut into chunks 
1 tablespoon salt
1 1/4 teaspoons garlic powder (optional) 
3/4 teaspoon ground black pepper 
1 1/3 cups milk, warmed 
Directions: 
Place the potatoes, water, and butter into a slow cooker.  Season with salt, garlic powder, and pepper.  Cover, and cook High for 3-4 hours.  Do not remove the excess water from slow cooker. This adds to the creamy texture. 
Mash potatoes with a masher or electric beater, adding the desired amount of warm milk to achieve a creamy consistency.  Keep warm on low until serving. 
Potatoes keep consistency for a couple of hours after mashing. Just keep the lid on the slow cooker and serve directly from there.
