I tweaked this. Had extra potatoes to use up,
so I doubled the recipe. I followed the recipe
up to 'potato flakes'. Discovered we were
out
of milk, and no cream.... so I substituted
a large can of cream of chicken soup,
diluted. I also threw in a cup of
sliced mushrooms, a sliced large carrot,
and sliced stalk of celery.
