Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds russet potatoes
- 0.5 cup coconut milk
- 4 tablespoons ghee
- 6 slices compliant bacon
- 0.25 cup nutritional yeast
- 0.5 cup green onions
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Peel and chop the russet potatoes into 1-inch cubes.
Place the potato cubes in a large pot and cover them with cold water. Add a pinch of salt.
Bring the water to a boil over high heat, then reduce to medium and simmer until the potatoes are fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes.
While the potatoes are boiling, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove from skillet and place on a paper towel-lined plate. Once cool, crumble the bacon and set aside.
Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add the coconut milk, ghee, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Mash the potatoes using a potato masher until smooth and creamy.
Stir in the nutritional yeast for a cheesy flavor and the crumbled bacon, reserving a small amount of bacon for garnish.
Mix in the chopped green onions, reserving a few for topping.
Transfer the mashed potatoes to a serving dish and garnish with reserved bacon and green onions before serving.
Serve hot and enjoy your Whole30 Loaded Mashed Potatoes!
