I'm hoping that someone can bale me out here. Somewhere out in my frozen garage is a box of recipe books, and they're completely out of my ability to get them. I have a headache and I'm just not feeling well, and all I really want right now is a nice bowl of mashed potatoes. I'm a cheater, so I've got instant ones here. The problem is, my book that has the table of ingredients and amounts for the instant mashed potatoes is among the missing. I'm hoping that someone out here might be able to give me information on water, milk, butter, salt, and all that good stuff so that I can make myself a bit of comfort food for probably either the 4 or 6 serving size. Thanks to anyone who can do this!!!!

From Yahoo Answers:

2 servings: 2/3 cup water, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1 tablespoon butter, 1/4 cup milk, 2/3 cup flakes
4 servings: 1 1/3 cups water, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 2 tablespoons butter, 1/2 cup milk, 1 1/3 cup flakes
8 servings: 2 2/3 cups water, 1 teaspoon salt, 4 tablespoons butter, 1 cup milk, 2 2/3 cup flakes
16 servings: 5 1/3 cups water, 2 teaspoons salt, 8 tablespoons butter, 2 cups milk, 5 1/3 cups flakes
Hope this helps, its the instructions on the canister of Idahoan brand original mashed potatoes.
combine water, salt and butter, bring to boil, then remove from heat. Then add cold milk, and stir in potato flakes, but don't whip.

I keep this stuff around for days when I have no motivation. And, we won't mention the fact that I need to buy fresh potatoes anyway. GRIN!!
