Healthy Thanksgiving Treats - Day Four
Here is a recipe for gluten-free and dairy-free mashed potatoes. My kids like to make mashed potato volcanoes with gravy. And speaking of gravy, tune in tomorrow for great gravy recipes!
Marvelous Mashed Potatoes
- 6 large or 10-12 small russet, red, or gold potatoes
- 3/4 - 1 cup unsweetened soy, rice, nut, or hemp milk OR water
- 1/4 cup wheat-free tamari
- 1/3 cup non-dairy, non-hydrogenated margarine
- garlic powder
- black pepper
Chunk potatoes and boil until just soft. Drain and place in a large bowl. Add margarine and mash together well. Add tamari. Add milk or water slowly until desired consistency is acheived. (You may not use all the liquid.) Add garlic powder and black pepper to taste.
For a vitamin boost, leave the skins on the potatoes. For creamier mashed potatoes, peel the potatoes before cooking.
