What You Need

lb. white or Yukon Gold potatoes (about 10), peeled, cubed

cup BREAKSTONE'S Reduced Fat or KNUDSEN Light Sour Cream

1/2

cup (1/2 of 8-oz. tub) PHILADELPHIA 1/3 Less Fat than Cream Cheese

tsp. onion powder

slice OSCAR MAYER Bacon, cooked, crumbled

green onions, sliced

Make It

COOK potatoes in large saucepan of boiling water 10 to 15 min. or until tender; drain. Place potatoes in large bowl. Add sour cream, reduced-fat cream cheese and onion powder; mash until creamy.

SPOON into lightly greased 2-qt. casserole; cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate up to 2 days. Remove from refrigerator 30 min. before baking. Discard plastic wrap.

HEAT oven to 350°F. Bake potatoes 1 hour or until heated through. Sprinkle with bacon and onions.

Kraft Kitchens Tips

Make Ahead

Assemble recipe as directed but do not sprinkle with bacon and onions; cover with heavy-duty foil. Freeze up to 1 month. When ready to serve, thaw overnight in refrigerator. Bake, covered, 1 hour or until heated through, uncovering the last 10 min. Sprinkle with bacon and onions.

Variation

Use any savory flavor of PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese Spread to season the potatoes. Or, roast fresh garlic and add to the potatoes for creamy garlic mashed potatoes.

Variation

Sprinkle baked casserole with OSCAR MAYER Real Bacon Bits, chopped chives and/or KRAFT Grated Parmesan Cheese instead of the suggested toppings.
