About Mashed potatoes with peas and carrots

Mashed Potatoes with Peas and Carrots is a comforting side dish with simple, wholesome ingredients. This dish typically combines creamy mashed potatoes with cooked peas and carrots, seasoned with butter, salt, and pepper. A staple in Western cuisine, it’s often served with roasted meats or stews. Potatoes provide a good source of potassium and vitamin C, while peas and carrots add fiber, vitamin A, and antioxidants. However, the use of butter or cream in the mashed potatoes can increase saturated fat and calorie content, so lighter substitutes like olive oil or low-fat milk can be used for a healthier option. This dish offers a balance of starchy and vegetable components, making it versatile, satisfying, and appealing for both children and adults.
