Cowboy Mashed Potatoes

Original recipe, here.

A couple of months ago, I needed to use up some vegetables (do you sense a theme, here?) so I decided to try these mashed potatoes. They are very unique, but also very yummy! (Can you really go wrong with mashed potatoes?!)

• 1/4 cup butter
• 1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
• salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

1. Place red potatoes, yellow potatoes, jalapeno pepper, carrots, turnips, and garlic cloves in a large pot. Cover with water, and bring to a boil over high heat. Cook 15 to 20 minutes, or until potatoes are tender. Drain water from pot.
