My elderly aunt taught me a lesson on making low fat mashed potatoes. After draining them, and using just a tiny dab of lowfat margarine, I start whipping them and adding, just a little at a time, fat free non dairy creamer.

Beverly, this is a great tip! I bet it tastes really good! I love mashed potatoes nice and rich, so to be able to make them that way while keeping them low fat and lower calorie is a great tip! Thank you.
Good Tricks Bev. I have sometimes used CoffeeMate (made with the boiling hot potato water and dry powdered CoffeeMate), and a little butter for enrichment. As long as the potatoes are cooked nice and tender to begin with and mashed up nice and smooth, they'll eat them.
Thanks for sharing.
