A creamy, delicious and totally SYN FREE Loaded Mashed Potato recipe for Slimming World!

8x Maris Piper Potatoes

1x Egg

Spash semi-skimmed milk

150g Grated Cheddar Cheese (4x HexA minus 10g to allow for milk)

120g Grated Red Leicester Cheese (4x HexA)

8 Rashers Lean Bacon (visible fat removed)

2tbsp Fresh Chopped Chives

Salt & Pepper (to taste)

Preheat your oven to 180 degrees.
Peel and slice about 8 large Maris Piper potatoes and place them in a saucepan of hot water. 
Bring to the boil over high heat and then allow to simmer until the potatoes are soft and fluffy. 
Meanwhile, cut your bacon into small pieces and fry until crispy. 
When the potatoes are cooked through, drain the water and put the potatoes back in the saucepan.
Mash until smooth and then add salt (to your taste), the raw egg and splash of milk.
Immediately mash the egg into the potatoes until they are super creamy.
Add half of the Red Leicester and Cheddar cheese along with the bacon and  a tablespoon of fresh chopped chives. Stir until combined. 
Tip the mashed potato into a deep baking dish (I've used a lasagne dish like these - affiliate link) and smooth them out before topping with the rest of the cheese and bacon.
Bake in the oven for 20 minutes, or until the cheese is totally melted and the edge of the potatoes begin to catch slightly.
Garnish with a crack of salt and pepper, and the rest of the chives.
