Give the usual mashed potatoes a rest and serve this side dish instead. It's loaded with ricotta, cottage, and Gorgonzola cheeses. Found on Diabetic Living. Ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs russet potatoes, scrubbed and cut into 1-1/2-inch chunks |
1/3 cup part-skim ricotta cheese |
1/3 cup low fat cottage cheese |
1/3 cup crumbled gorgonzola |
1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed |
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder |
1/4-1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper |
1/4 teaspoon salt (or to taste) |
Directions:
1. In a covered large saucepan, cook potatoes in enough boiling water to cover for 15 to 20 minutes or until tender; drain.
2. Meanwhile, place ricotta cheese and cottage cheese in a food processor or blender. Cover and process or blend until smooth. Transfer mixture to a large bowl; add Gorgonzola cheese, rosemary, garlic powder, pepper, and salt.
3. Immediately add hot cooked potatoes to the cheese mixture. Beat with an electric mixer on low speed for 30 seconds. Beat on high speed for 2 minutes more. Transfer potato mixture to a serving bowl. Serve immediately.
