Creamy Garlic Mashed Potatoes
This classic comfort food gets an irresistible makeover that stars whole garlic cloves, herbs, and a rich, creamy taste thanks to Oikos Yogurt.
Ingredients:
- 1 ¼ cups Oikos 11% Plain Yogurt
- 2 lbs (1kg) russet potatoes, peeled and halved (approx. 4 large)
- 2 heads of garlic cloves, peeled (20 whole cloves)
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh chives
- 1 tsp minced fresh thyme
- 1 ¼ tsp salt
- ½ tsp pepper
Preparation steps
-
Place potatoes and garlic in large saucepan; fill with cold water so that potatoes are submerged by at least one inch. Cover and bring to boil; cook until fork tender, about 25 minutes. Drain and return to pot.
-
Add yogurt, chives, thyme, salt and pepper. Mash with potato masher until smooth and creamy.

Tip: Save time by buying pre-peeled garlic cloves, available in the produce aisle of your supermarket.
