I've always been an instant potatoes gal in the past. But adding all that milk and butter added so many calories, I found I couldn't eat them when cutting back. So, when we found a lower calorie alternative on a site listing recipes found on the back of boxes, I was thrilled. Hello, mashed potatoes, I've missed you so.
Skinny Mashed Potatoes
Instructions:
- 5 large potatoes, cut into 1-inch pieces (about 7 1/2 cups) (my garden potatoes are so small I can throw 12-15 of those tiny suckers in there =) )
- 2 cans (14 1/2 ounces each) Swanson Chicken Broth (3 1/2 cups)
- Generous dash pepper *optional
I used the 'generous' dash of pepper the first time I made these and couldn't stop coughing/sneezing. So now, I just add pepper at the dinner table. lol
Directions:
- In medium saucepan place uncooked potatoes and broth.
- Over high heat, heat to a boil. Reduce heat to medium.
- Cover and cook 10 minutes or until potatoes are tender.
- Drain, reserving broth.
Mash potatoes, adding a little bit of the reserved chicken broth at a time until potatoes are at desired consistency.
Makes about 6 servings
