Avocado Mashed Potatoes image

On a whim one night I threw some avocado into my mashies to stir things up a bit and was surprised at how much I liked them. My general rule of thumb is a quarter of an avocado per large russet potato, but feel free to use other spuds. It's a good, healthy way to make the potatoes creamy without bad fat. You can leave out the butter if you like. Make sure that if your avocado is a Reed that you only use half of it since they are usually quite large.

Time 20m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 large russet potatoes (scrubbed or peeled)
1 avocado
1 tablespoon butter
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Cut the potatoes into quarters.
  • Drop them in a quart of salted, boiling water and let cook for 10-15 minutes or until easily pierced by a fork.
  • Cut the avocado into four parts lengthwise and discard the rind and pit.
  • When the potatoes are done, drain them and immediately add the butter, avocado, salt and pepper to ensure the potatoes are still hot for best mixing.
  • Mash the ingredients together so that the avocado is mixed evenly throughout - I prefer a hand-held mixer with a blender or whisk attachment.

I had a hard time finding ripe avocados. I think that's why my mashed potatoes didn't turn out as creamy as I hoped.

These mashed potatoes were a bit too bland for my taste. I think I'll add some extra seasonings next time.

I'm not usually a fan of avocado, but I decided to give this recipe a try. I'm so glad I did! The avocado flavor is subtle, but it really adds something special to the mashed potatoes.

These mashed potatoes were a hit at my Thanksgiving dinner. Everyone raved about how delicious they were. I will definitely be making them again next year.

This is the best mashed potato recipe I've ever tried. The avocado adds a creamy richness that is out of this world. I'll never make mashed potatoes the old way again!
