Chicken broth takes the place of butter and adds flavorful dimension to low-fat mashed potatoes. Sweet potatoes or yams may be substituted for the potatoes.

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 20 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 5 large potatoes, cut into 1-inch pieces (about 7-1/2 cups)
  • 2 cans (14-1/2 ounces each) chicken broth
  • Generous dash pepper

Preparation:

Place potatoes and chicken broth in a medium saucepan. Over high heat, heat to a boil. Reduce heat to medium. Cover and cook 10 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Drain, reserving broth.

Mash potatoes with 1-1/4 cups broth and pepper. If needed, add additional broth until potatoes are desired consistency.

Variation: Substitute 4 large sweet potatoes or yams for potatoes. Add 2 tablespoons packed brown sugar with pepper.

Yield: 6 servings
