Shrimp Mashed Potatoes

What could I possibly say... it's SHRIMP and MASHED POTATOES, together. Married. Together in all of their fluffly, flavorful glory.

So, again, I owe this one to Paula... however we'll be putting another spin on these REAL SOON.

RECIPE:
1/2 lb precooked shrimp, chopped
1/2 c hot milk
1/2 c sour cream
1 stick butter (whatever.... do it!)
8-10 red potatoes
salt
pepper
paprika
chives (I forgot to use)


Slice and boil potatoes. Drain and re-fill pan with potatoes. Roughly mash up potatoes; add shrimp, butter, sour cream, salt and pepper (to taste), and mash some more. Add milk and chives, and continue to mash until you have desire consistency. Plate potatoes garnishing with chives..... enjoy.


Someone, please try this out with lobster! If I could cook them, I would. It would truly remind me of the dinner me and hubby had a Maestro (uber-LA scene restaurant). That dish was "to die for!"

Oooh! A new take on shrimp and grits? Shrimp n' spuds? Looks great but with all that creaminess, I'll have to watch my portions!
