Greek Yogurt Mashed Potatoes

When preparing a dish, it’s good to remember that yogurt, especially Greek Yogurt, can be used as a substitute for cream, butter, or milk. While adding cream or milk can help to make a dish extra rich and tasty, it can also make the meal rather heavy and calorie-rich. If you’d like to make your meal a little creamier while keeping the calorie count down, then add a little Greek Yogurt. That’s the idea behind our Greek yogurt mashed potatoes—they’re just as creamy and fluffy as regular mashed potatoes, but they’re a little healthier and lighter. If you think one of your friends or family members might like our potatoes, then please share the recipe after you try it on Facebook, Pinterest, instagram or Twitter.

Ready to whip up some Greek yogurt mashed potatoes? To get started, you’ll need two pounds of Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes, three tablespoons of Cabot Salted Butter (or, if you’d like to make the dish a little lighter, you can go with olive oil instead), salt, ground black pepper, Cabot Two Percent Plain Greek yogurt, and milk. Also, if you’re looking to make the recipe a little heavier, you can add a few more items to the dish. We suggest three tablespoons of fresh chives, eight ounces of Cabot Sharp Cheddar, Cabot Extra Sharp Cheddar or Cabot Horseradish Cheddar. The directions below detail everything you need to know about making the recipe.
