Creamy Garlic Mashed Potatoes.
Ingredients:
-4 2/3 cups of russet potatoes -1 cup of veggie broth -½ cup of raw cashews -¼ cup of nutritional yeast -3 cloves of garlic, sautéed -1-2 tbsp garlic powder -2 tbsp Italian seasoning -Salt and pepper to taste -A dollop of vegan butter (optional)
Instructions:
1. Peel and cut your potatoes into chunks. 2. In a large pot, boil until potatoes are soft and easily pierced with a fork, about 10 minutes. 3. While the potatoes are cooking, add your cashews, nutritional yeast, ¾ cup of the veggie broth and the sautéed garlic into a high speed blender, blend until completely smooth. 4. Drain the potatoes and put into a mixing bowl. 5. Using a stand mixer (or hand mixer), blend the potatoes on low, adding in your veggie broth/cashew mix and seasonings until completely incorporated. 6. Next you can add in the remaining veggie broth (plus more if you so choose!) if you want a creamier end result or just omit, this part is personal preference. 7. Transfer to a serving bowl, top with your butter and serve while hot.
