Cheesy, buttery, and fluffy buffalo mashed potatoes made in the slow cooker!

When life gets overwhelming stop and take a deep breath. Then say “I know I got this!” I find that when we take a second to reset, we are able to enjoy the small wins in our day. Like buttery cheesy Buffalo mashed potatoes wins lol! Also, I always say you can find extra time for yourself by making dinner in a slow cooker. It is your personal chef. You drop the food in and come home to warm mashed potato yum! Hope this recipe changes your routine and makes you happy!

In fact the slow cooker is also perfect to keep mashed potatoes warm. Make them a day or 2 in advance and you can put them on the warm setting with a dash of liquid. This way one less thing to heat up! I believe in you and am cheering you on!

Happy Cooking and cheers to recipes that celebrate you!

Recipe Hack/Cooking Tips:

Yukon Gold Potatoes save time because no need to peel. The skins are soft and thin so easy to eat.
Use chicken broth instead of water! Replacing the water with broth makes them even more soaked up with flavor.
Salt the potatoes after water boils. If salt before there is a boil the salt stays at the bottom of pot and the potatoes are not seasoned well!
Cut the potatoes small. The smaller you cut the more evenly cooked and faster they cook.
Make this a vegetarian recipe. Use mushroom or vegetable broth instead of chicken broth.
