These loaded boursin mashed potatoes dress up any dinner without much extra effort. Leaving the skins on gives the dish a bit of a rustic look, and it’s much less work than peeling potatoes. This garlic-fresh herb flavor is a clever and savory way to style up classic, creamy mashed potatoes.

Ingredients

1 1/2 pounds unpeeled bite-sized baby gold potatoes, halved
1 teaspoon salt
2 strips bacon
1 (5.2 ounce) package gournay cheese, such as Boursin® Garlic and Fine Herbs Cheese, cut into chunks
1/4 cup melted unsalted butter
2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup half-and-half
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon chopped parsley

Directions

Place potatoes in a large pot, and sprinkle with salt. Fill the pot with cold water, covering potatoes by about an inch. Bring to a boil over medium high heat with the pot partially covered with a lid. Reduce the heat to medium, and simmer until potatoes are fork tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain potatoes and return to pot.
Meanwhile, place bacon in a skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 7 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels. Crumble when cool enough to handle.
Break up potatoes with a potato masher or an electric mixer on low speed, add Boursin, butter, Parmesan, and bacon.
Continue mashing, gradually adding half-and-half until all ingredients are well combined and you reach your desired consistency, adding more half-and-half if needed. Season with salt and pepper.
Transfer to a serving dish, garnish with parsley, and serve.
