Low Calorie Mashed Potato

Directions

• Preparation
• Place the chopped potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add a pinch of salt.
• Cooking
• Boil the potatoes until very soft and easily pierced with a fork.
• Drain the potatoes well and return them to the hot pot. Let them sit uncovered for 20 minutes to evaporate excess moisture — this step helps prevent watery mash. Once the potatoes have cooled slightly, peel them.
• Add the butter and lite milk to the hot potatoes and mash thoroughly using a potato masher or ricer. Stir in the onion powder, garlic powder, parsley (if using), salt, and pepper to taste. Adjust the seasoning as needed.
