Mashed potatoes is my favorite food! I am always trying to come up with variations of the traditional recipe to mix things up. I had a handful of Yukon Gold Potatoes so I came up with this recipe to serve with Jo's Famous Meatloaf.
Serves: 4
8 Yukon Gold Potatoes (small)
1 garlic clove
1/8 cup pine nuts
1 triangle of Laughing Cow Garlic & Herb Cheese
3/4 cup skim milk
1 tablespoon butter
Finely chop garlic clove. Put pine nuts in a zip lock back and crush with a mallet. Fill a pot with cold water on the stove. Slice Yukon Gold potatoes in half and place in pot. Bring to a boil. Cook until potatoes can be broken apart with a fork. While potatoes are cooking, heat up butter in a cast iron skillet. Saute garlic and pine nuts in skillet. Set aside and keep warm. Heat up milk in a cup in the microwave. Once potatoes are done, strain them and return to bowl. With a hand masher, mash potatoes. Stir in cheese, pine nuts, garlic, and butter. Add warm milk to get desired consistency. Add salt and pepper to get desired taste. Serve immediately.
