I second chicken broth- I use chicken broth and roasted garlic in my potatoes... YUMMY... the other thing I do is when I bake a whole bird I save the pan drippings (normally flavored with onion, garlic, among other things.... ) and stick thm in a ontainer in the fridge... then I can lift the fat off, and reheat to make yummy broth and flavoring for other things.. I can even freeze it...

Too funny Casey! 
khyricat that is a great idea... I bet that is packed full of flavor too.
I was just thinking I would like to add in roasted garlic as well... I've never roasted garlic...I've seen it done lots of times on www.foodtv.com

...is just about the easiest thing in the world, and it's totally worth it. Give it a try! I usually just take a whole bulb, wrap it loosely in foil that's been sprayed with cooking spray, and let it bake at 350 for 1/2 hour or so. Not only do you get yummy garlic to work with, but your kitchen smells like heaven the rest of the day.

Mashed Potatoes w/ Roasted Garlic
1 Bulb Garlic
2 Medium Potatoes
1 Tbsp. Can't Believe It's Not Butter Spray (or other butter sub)
1/4-1/2 Cup Chicken Broth
Salt & Pepper to taste
1 Tsp Dry Parsley Flakes
ROASTING GARLIC: Preheat oven to 350. Cut off top of garlic bulb exposing the tip of each clove. Spray a piece of foil with cooking spray (i.e., Pam), place clove cut side down on foil wrap up and bake in oven for 30 mins. Let cool.
POTATOES:
In a medium saucepan add peeled and chop potatoes, fill pan with water and a little salt. Bring to a boil, cover and reduce to medium, letting the simmer until a fork goes in easily (about 20-30 mins). Drain. Put back in pan, mash with fork. Add butter spray (or other butter sub), then squeeze the garlic out of the bulb into the pan, add 1/4 cup of broth (you can add more as you mix and taste to your preference) Mix really well, add parsley and salt & pepper to taste. Return to stovetop to heat through. ENJOY!!
Then you might want an after dinner mint (Altoid)
Thanks Casey for teaching me about the garlic
