Creamy Protein-Packed Mashed Potatoes with FORALL
Mashed potatoes are a beloved comfort food, but they’re often viewed as more indulgent than nutritious. What if you could transform this classic side dish into a protein-packed powerhouse without sacrificing flavor or texture?
FORALL's clean, tasteless protein powder blends seamlessly into mashed potatoes, adding a nutritional boost that supports muscle repair and satiety. Whether you're preparing for a holiday feast or just craving a cozy side, this recipe is the perfect balance of comfort and clean eating.
Why Add Protein to Mashed Potatoes?
- Balance Your Plate: While potatoes provide healthy carbs, adding protein creates a more balanced dish.
- Stay Fuller, Longer: Protein helps curb cravings and keeps you satisfied.
- Convenient Nutrition: FORALL’s whey protein isolate is pure, tasteless, and free from additives, making it easy to incorporate into recipes.
Ingredients
Serves: 4
- 2 lbs of Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes, peeled and chopped
- ½ cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter or ghee
- 1 scoop FORALL Nutrition whey protein isolate
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Fresh chives or parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
Boil the Potatoes: Place the chopped potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add a generous pinch of salt. Bring the water to a boil and cook until the potatoes are fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes.
Mash the Potatoes: Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Allow them to steam for 1-2 minutes to remove excess moisture. Add the butter or ghee, almond milk, and garlic powder (if using). Mash with a potato masher or use a hand mixer for smoother potatoes.
Incorporate the Protein: Once the potatoes are mashed, sprinkle in the scoop of FORALL Nutrition whey protein isolate. Stir thoroughly to ensure the protein powder is evenly incorporated. Adjust the consistency with more milk, if needed.
Season and Serve: Taste and season with salt and pepper to your preference. Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with fresh chives or parsley for a pop of color.
