One of my biggest weaknesses is potatoes.  I don't discriminate.  I love them mashed, baked, roasted, or fried. Pretty much any way you can make a potato, I will devour it.

In an effort to make my weakness a bit healthier, I added kale!  When all else fails just add some kale, right?

These potatoes are delish!  Give 'em a shot....you won't be disappointed!

Kale Mashed Potatoes
serves 6

1 lb. potatoes (red, Yukon or sweet), peeled and cubed
3 T butter
1/2 c almond milk
fresh kale, a few leaves - stems removed and chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1 small onion, minced
olive oil
salt & pepper to taste

Peel your potatoes and place in a pot of cold, salted water.  Bring the potatoes to a boil.  Let them sit at a rolling boil for about 15-20 min, or until tender.

Meanwhile, heat some olive oil in a saucepan.  Add in your onion and garlic.  When tender, add the kale and let it wilt.  Remove from heat.

When the potatoes are tender, drain them.  Add your butter, almond milk and salt and pepper.  Mash with a potato masher.  If they are too dry, add more almond milk a little at a time.  When they are creamy, transfer to a bowl and top with the kale mixture.

I do believe these would be a perfect side dish for your holiday meal!

What are some of your weaknesses??

XoXo,
Nicole
