Our family loves mashed potatoes, and with my husband and I adopting a healthier lifestyle, I needed to re-vamp some of our old favorites. These mashed potatoes are packed with flavor and are the perfect accompaniment to any meal. Ingredients:
15 -18 small red potatoes, leave skin intact |
3 teaspoons salt |
1 teaspoon pepper |
1/2 cup 1% low-fat milk |
1/2 teaspoon coarse black pepper |
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder |
1 tablespoon butter, melted |
Directions:
1. Bring water to a boil in a large stockpot. Add the potatoes, 2 teaspoons of salt, and pepper and leave to a roiling boil for approximately 25 minutes or until fork tender. Strain the potatoes, reserving 1 cup of the liquid.
2. Return potatoes to the stockpot and mash lightly with a potato masher adding the reserved liquid, milk, remaining 1 teaspoons of salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Stir to combine-being careful not to over-mash. At the last, fold in the melted butter and serve immediately.
