Vegan Smashed Garlic Potatoes

Vegan Smashed Garlic Potatoes

You probably think that vegan mashed potatoes aren’t possible, but these are easy to make and wonderfully tasty. The heat from the potatoes will cook the garlic ever so slightly, but the garlic definitely shines through in this dish!

Ingredients:

8 medium sized red or Yukon gold potatoes

1/4 cup olive oil

1/2 cup almond milk

Sea salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

3 cloves of garlic, minced

1/4 cup nutritional yeast (optional)

(As always, for the very healthiest versions of any recipe choose organic content as much as possible.)

Instructions:

1. Dice up the potatoes (skins and all) and put them in a big pot with lots of water. Bring to a boil and cook for about 10 minutes, or until they’re tender, then drain them in a colander.

2. While they’re still hot, transfer your potatoes into a large bowl with the remaining ingredients, and mash away! If things look dry, you can add another splash of milk. You’re not going for a super smooth situation here – it’s OK to have chunks of potatoes.
