To prepare, you will typically need to boil water or milk and then stir in the contents of the package. Allow it to sit for a few minutes, then fluff with a fork. You can adjust the amount of liquid for your desired consistency, making it creamier or thicker. Some people like to add butter, salt, or pepper for extra flavor. It can also be used as a base for other dishes, absorbing flavors well.

Unlike plain instant mashed potatoes, this version includes beets, which impart a vibrant pink or reddish hue and a slightly different flavor profile. The beets add a touch of natural sweetness and an earthy undertone that is not present in regular potato flakes.
