You won't believe you're eating healthy with these tasty potatoes. We made them creamy with buttermilk and then added fabulous flavor with Parmesan cheese and chives.

Ingredients

• 10 medium potato(es), red (about 2 1/2 lbs)
• 1/2 cup buttermilk, warmed
• 3 Tbsp Parmesan cheese, strong-flavored, grated
• 1/4 cup chives, chopped
• 1 tsp table salt
• 1/8 tsp black pepper, freshly ground, or to taste

Instructions

• Place potatoes in a large pot and cover with an inch of water; bring to a boil, reduce heat, simmer and cook until fork-tender, about 30 minutes. Drain and return potatoes to pot.
  
  
• Mash potatoes with a potato masher. Stir in remaining ingredients and mix well to combine. Yields about 2/3 cup per serving.

Notes

• Add the bold flavor of wild mushrooms to these mashed potatoes by soaking 1/4 cup of dried shiitake, porcini or black trumpet mushooms in boiling hot water for 10 minutes. Drain well, chop and stir in with the cheese.
