Potato Spinach Jack Mash is a variation on Cauliflower Potato Cheddar Mash, from a vegetarian cookbook I have. When I started to make it, I remembered that I had no plain yogurt on hand. I used some of the potato cooking water instead.
2 lb red-skin potatoes
1 16 oz package frozen spinach, thawed and well drained
3/4 cup plain low fat yogurt
1 oz grated Monterrey Jack cheese
1 cup chopped red onion
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/2 cup chopped orange bell pepper
salt and pepper to taste
Peel the potatoes and cut in chunks. Put in pot with water to cover, plus one inch. Cook until easy to pierce with a fork.
Immediately drain the potatoes. Mash potatoes, mixing in the yogurt; use cooking liquid if you’re out of yogurt. Stir in the cheese, nutmeg, salt, and pepper.
Next, stir in the chopped onion and bell pepper. Fold in spinach.
Makes about 8 cups.
