ALTERNATE: If using fresh potatoes, use 1 1/2 lbs Russet or Yukon Gold, boiled in water until tender. Drain the water. Then add 6 Tbs heated milk, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp pepper, 3 Tbs melted butter, and the 1 cup of 4 cheese blend.

If using frozen ready-made mashed potatoes, don't add extra salt since the ready-made already have added salt. Adding extra salt would make the potatoes too salty.
