This recipe has the rich, creamy texture of traditional mashed potatoes but with a lot less fat and a whole lot of flavor. If youre not a fan of horseradish, substitute ¼ cup prepared pesto for a more mellow flavor.
Ingredients
- 3 lb. Yukon gold or russet (baking) potatoes, peeled and cut into 2-inch pieces
- 1 cup plain soymilk
- 2 Tbs. to ¼ cup horseradish, optional
- 3 Tbs. corn or canola oil
Preparation
- Place potatoes in large pot, and cover with salted cold water. Bring to boil, reduce heat to medium low, and simmer 18 minutes, or until tender.
- Just before potatoes are done, bring soymilk just to a simmer in small saucepan over medium heat.
