Ingredients

2 pounds Yukon gold potatoes (about 5 cups), diced unpeeled
1/2 cup low-fat buttermilk
1/2 cup skim milk
4 tablespoons grated Parmesan
Salt
1 tablespoon unsalted butter

Directions

Place potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and cook until tender, about 10 minutes.

While potatoes are cooking place buttermilk and milk into a small saucepan and cook over a very low heat until just warm. Be careful not to boil or milk will curdle.

Drain the potatoes, add the warmed milk and mash together to desired consistency. Stir in cheese and salt. Top with the butter and let it melt.

Pretty Good
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

These potatoes are pretty good. Although I have made other recipes that I prefer, the lower fat and calorie content of these... potatoes is worth a little sacrifice in flavor. The creaminess of the Yukon golds is still there and with a little salt and pepper to finish the dish, they are tasty enough. Read more

I Was Skeptical...
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

but these were pretty good. I did add a bit more cheese to it and a healthy dose of fresh black pepper. I also threw the T... of butter in with the heated buttermilk/milk. A nice alternative to heavy-cream-stick-o-butter mashed potatoes that are, of course, much tastier, but loaded with calories. This recipe will probably become a staple of weeknight mashers and we'll save the butter and cream for special occasions. I give it four stars, not because they're the best mashers ever, far from it. But for the tradeoff in fat, these are really very good.Read more

Disappointing
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

These were so bland and watery. No flavor. I usually like Ellie Krieger recipes, but this one was no good.

Not good
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

I have tried several of Ellie's recipes in the past and have enjoyed all of them, but this one was bland and boring. I... followed the recipe exactly and it had no flavor. I even added more Parmesan. I will never make these potatoes again. Read more
