2
ingredients
- 8 yellow new potatoes (about 3/4 pound)
- 1 teaspoon Smart Balance light butter spread or 1 teaspoon any other light tub margarine
- 3 tablespoons nonfat milk
- 1⁄2 cup nonfat sour cream or 1/2 cup reduced-fat sour cream
- 2 tablespoons bacon bits or 2 tablespoons veggie bacon bits
- 1 tablespoon fresh chives, chopped
- salt and pepper
directions
- Microwave potatoes until fork tender (you could also steam or boil the potatoes as well).
- With a masher, smash potatoes a little (I leave the skins on, but feel free to remove them, if you like). Add light butter, and smash a little more. Be careful not to overmix, or potatoes will become glue-y.
- Add milk and stir or mash into potatoes. Stir in sour cream, bacon bits and chives. Add salt and pepper, if desired.
- Rewarm for about 45 seconds in the microwave, and serve.

4 stars ! I chose this recipe to make in PRMR Zaar cooking Game becuase we DON'T have non fat milk or sour cream here in Nl and I wanted to see if it could be still be achieved with things that I DO have. With this in mind I took a stick blender to some cottage cheese until it was a smooth paste and then added a tiny amount of water to thin it just a tad more. I didn't use the margarine or chives but did use real bacon, patting it well with papertowels to get as much grease off it as possible. Once combined, you really couldn't taste that it was a lower fat potato dish and even better, I loved it ! Please see my rating system: 4 excellent stars for an easy to make, tasty and healthier potato dish that I will be making regularly. Thanks!
