Jackie Alpers on Eat This Not That

I had some things to say about my favorite Thanksgiving side dish at Eat This Not That – my healthier smoky, spicy mashed potatoes. The article is written by the fabulously talented Tanya Edwards.

"Because I've been known to eat a Thanksgiving meal that consists almost entirely of mashed potatoes and gravy, I replace the cream and some of the butter in the recipe with an aromatic garlic- and chile-infused broth that I cook the potatoes in, resulting in lighter mashed potatoes that are BIG on flavor. Look for a smoky BBQ seasoning that does not contain sugar."
