Healthy Garlic Mashed Potatoes

Ingredients

  • 1 pound red potatoes, peeled and cut into eighths
  • 1 pound russet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
  • 5 garlic cloves
  • 3/4 cup nonfat milk
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 3/4 teaspoon coarse salt
  • Freshly ground pepper

Cooking Directions

    • In a medium saucepan, combine the potatoes and whole garlic; add enough cold water to cover by about 2 inches. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to a simmer, and cook until the potatoes are easily pierced with a fork, about 15 minutes. Drain the potatoes, and set aside in a warm place.
