This was special comfort food my mom made for my brother and myself. I just took it a couple of modern steps forward to make it easy...still just as tasty! Ingredients:
4 large potatoes, white or 4 large russet potatoes |
2 (4 ounce) jars baby spinach, jr.style |
2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons margarine |
1/2 cup low-fat milk |
1/2 teaspoon sea salt |
1/2-1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper |
1/4 teaspoon fresh nutmeg, ground (optional) |
Directions:
1. Peel and large dice the potatoes.
2. Place in large pot, add enough water to cover potaotes by two inches. Bring to a boil, turn down to medium and cook until fork-tender.
3. Drain cooked potatoes and return to hot pot. Turn heat to lowest setting.
4. Add butter and mash well or leave with small lumps.
5. Combine rest of ingredients and blend. Heat through.
6. Serve hot.
7. This makes a nice lunch. Serve with chilled sliced beef tomatoes topped with salt and pepper to taste and sprinkle with grated cheese as desired.
