Potatoes
- 3 medium potatoes (about 1–1/4 lbs.), peeled and cut into chunks
Mix-ins
- 1/4 cup Country Crock® Original Spread
- 1/4 cup 2% milk
- 1/4 tsp. salt
- Pinch ground black pepper
- Boil Potatoes: Cover the peeled and chunked potatoes with water in a 2-quart saucepan. Bring the water to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer uncovered until the potatoes are very tender, approximately 15 minutes. Drain the potatoes thoroughly.
- Mash and Mix: Return the drained potatoes to the saucepan and mash until smooth. Stir in the Country Crock Original Spread, 2% milk, salt, and ground black pepper until well combined and creamy.
Notes
- Use Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes for best texture.
- Adjust milk quantity to achieve desired creaminess.
- For richer flavor, substitute 2% milk with cream or whole milk.
- Season with additional pepper or herbs to taste.
- Serve immediately for best texture and flavor.
