Kelly Cook
This was awesome!! Followed exactly and we loved this take on mashed potatoes! Paired with Chef John’s Pork Agrodolce; very complimentary to the balsamic-based pork! Thanks Occasional Cooker for a fantastic and easy side dish!
Andrew Miller
This was a wonderful variation on typical mashed potatoes. I often add garlic and sometimes cheese, sour cream, chicken broth, or other herbs to change it up, but the feta added a wonderful tang that offered a great new twist! Will definitely make this often.
Cameron Clements
Not all that healthy but tasted awesome!
Veronica Brown
We liked this dish fresh feta salt and pepper to taste. I did not add rosemary but did add everything else will make again
Kelly Roberts
Family loved these potatoes. The only tweak I did was using my masher mashed in the milk, butter, garlic, oregano and rosemary. Once smooth stirred in the feta cheese. We are a family of 4 and there is none left this morning. Will be making again. Thank you Occasional Cooker for sharing this wonderful recipe.

Mr. Keith Smith
quick, easy, and delish
Gregory Hodges
These are okay, but a little bland. They might be better in the slow cooker.
Laura Wood
Fabulous!! The oregano, rosemary and feta all came together and had a wonderful flavor profile. I did add my garlic cloves to the boiling water with my potatoes so we would have a little milder flavor. They mash perfectly in with the potatoes. I served with roasted lemon rosemary chicken and fresh green beans.
