perfect mashed potatoes

Cube the potatoes with the skins on (more nutrients when you don't peel 'em) boil them until tender and mash with a fork. No salt, No Cream, No butter! Add a good shake of dried basil, low fat cream cheese, and a splash of skim milk. I always mash some roasted garlic into them. The cream cheese will melt and you stir and make them really rich tasting. These actually look and taste just like the kind you get at a fancy restaurant.

Just to let you know in the restaurant mashed potatoes, there is about 5 days worth of fat in one serving! -------------- To change it, or to create it, simply train it!
