4tablespoonsalted butter
6clovesof garlicminced
2tbsfresh rosemaryminced
½cupreduced-sodium vegetable broth
½cupplain greek yogurt
½teaspoonsalt
Instructions
Add the potatoes to a large pot filled with cold water. Make sure the water covers the potatoes.
Bring the potatoes to a boil. Cover and cook for 15 minutes or until they can be easily pierced with a fork.
Strain the potatoes, allowing all of the water to drip out. Set aside.
Heat the butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Once the butter has melted, add the minced garlic and rosemary. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until the garlic has softened. Stir frequently to prevent burning.
Add the vegetable broth to the melted butter and herbs and allow the broth to simmer for 2 minutes. Turn off the heat.
Return the potatoes to a large pot. Add the vegetable broth mixture, greek yogurt and salt. Mash the potatoes using a potato masher until your desired consistency. Serve with pats of butter and enjoy!
Notes
Double or triple this recipe for a crowd. Plan on using about ½ lb of potatoes per person.
Peeling the potatoes is optional. Leave the skins on for a rustic feel, or peel the skin for smoother mashed potatoes.
Make sure to use plain greek yogurt that is NOT flavored.
