Follow The Directions

01

Step
20 mins

Place the cubed potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold, salted water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until the potatoes are fork-tender, about 18-20 minutes.

02

Step
1 mins

Drain the potatoes thoroughly in a colander. Return the drained potatoes to the pot.

03

Step
3 mins

Add the softened butter, garlic powder, and parsley to the potatoes. Using a potato masher or an electric mixer, mash until smooth and creamy.

04

Step
2 mins

Stir in the shredded Cheddar cheese and cubed ham until well combined and the cheese is melted and gooey.

05

Step
1 mins

Serve immediately and garnish with extra parsley, if desired.

For an even richer flavor, try using roasted garlic instead of garlic powder.
Consider adding a dollop of sour cream or cream cheese for extra creaminess.
Experiment with different cheeses like Gruyere, Monterey Jack, or a blend of your favorites.
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the microwave or on the stovetop, adding a splash of milk if needed to restore creaminess.
