Ultimate Pesto-Inspired Mashed Potatoes Recipe

Ingredients

• 8 vibrant red potatoes, peeled and cut into bite-sized cubes
• 2 cloves of garlic, finely minced
• A generous drizzle of flavorful olive oil
• 1 can of vegetable broth (14 ounces)
• A portion of fresh spinach (3/4 of a bag, about 10 ounces), thoroughly washed
• A half cup of grated Parmesan cheese
• Salt and pepper, to your personal taste

Step 1

In a generous pot, immerse the potatoes in salted water and bring to a lively boil. Lower the heat to a gentle simmer, covering the pot, and cook until tender, approximately for about 20 minutes. Once done, drain the potatoes and let them steam for a brief moment. In the meantime, combine garlic, olive oil, vegetable broth, and spinach in a blender. Blend until a velvety consistency is achieved and set the mixture aside.

Step 2

Now, with the potatoes tender, mash them until they reach a smooth texture. Gently incorporate the Parmesan cheese, and season the mash with salt and pepper according to your taste preferences.
