Peel and cut the russet potatoes into evenly sized chunks.
Fill a large pot with water, add 1 teaspoon of salt, and bring to a boil.
Add the potatoes to the boiling water and cook them for 15-20 minutes, or until they are fork-tender.
While the potatoes are cooking, steam the broccoli florets for about 5 minutes, until they are tender but still bright green.
Drain the cooked potatoes and return them to the pot.
Add olive oil, unsweetened almond milk, garlic powder, the remaining 0.5 teaspoon of salt, and black pepper to the potatoes.
Mash the potatoes with a potato masher or use an immersion blender for a smoother texture.
Fold the steamed broccoli into the mashed potatoes.
Stir in the nutritional yeast for added flavor.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Garnish with chopped chives before serving.
