Loved these! I used half red and half white potatoes, and increased the spinach to potato ratio to suit what I had on hand. Do not forget the nutmeg or the chives, they both added to the taste. Instead of sour cream I used a thick Greek low-fat yogurt. I also left the potato skins on and liked the resulting texture. I have a potato ricer but not a masher so I just used the back of a slotted spoon. BF liked this recipe too but was a little bit cooler about it than I was. Besides, he likes his mashed potatoes skinless and smooth and I like them just the opposite:D He's not rating this recipe either;)

<p>My husband and I have been together for over 10 years, married for 5. My husband is in school for his PhD in Math, and I have my Master's in Library Science. We have a 1 year old son.<br /> <br />I love cookbooks, and have a ton of vintage ones dating as far back as the 1920's. When DH's grandmother passed away, I inherited all of her cookbooks and recipes, and for Christmas we created a family cookbook using scans of her recipe cards. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /><a href=http://www.TickerFactory.com/weight-loss/wkFsIi2/> <br /><br /></a></p>
