Instant Pot Herbed Mashed Potatoes

Instant Pot Herbed Mashed Potatoes are so easy to make!  I made these to go with my Instant Pot Chicken Coq Au Vin the other night and they were perfect.  Luckily, I have two Instant Pot liners so I made the Potatoes and then set them aside covered in foil to stay warm while I made the Coq Au Vin.  This is where having two Instant Pots would really come in handy but my other Instant Pot is in Hawaii with my husband.
