We are always looking for tasty, easy one dish meals that don’t require very much prep time at all. Our family, like a whole lot of others, use rotisserie chicken as a super time saver. They taste great and are not expensive. Another of my favorite time savers is microwave mashed potatoes. This recipe uses both for easy week night dinner. You can also use leftover mashed potatoes, of course. Remember, this is supposed to be an easy, stress free meal. Add more or less or substitute the ingredients, depending on what you have or like.

Yum, I bet there wasn’t a spoonful of these potatoes left at the end of the meal.

I love this Southwest Rotisserie Chicken Loaded Mashed Potatoes recipe. These are ingredients that i usually have on hand at home. I like that it’s easy to make. You can use left over mashed potatoes and add chicken to a pan and bake it. It’s inexpensive and delicious. Thanks for sharing this gem. Shalom

Sour cream is listed in the ingredients but not in the instructions. I’m assuming a dollop atop each serving?

Yes! That’s great deduction and I’ll fix the recipe. Sorry about that!
