My easy mashed potatoes
- 5 potatoes
- salt
- pepper
- garlic powder
- drizzle of dairy free creamer OR a knob of vegan butter
Instructions
Make it:
- Add ground beef to a large bowl and add breadcrumbs, onion, and spices. Mix to combine well and shape into small meatballs.
- Place in the bottom of the slow cooker.
- Whisk together stock with worcestershire sauce and mustard and pour over the meatballs.
- Add herbs and sliced mushrooms. I like to sprinkle the mushrooms on top where they gently steam and retain their shape- they look very pretty when served like this.
- Drizzle over olive oil.
- Cover and cook on low 4 hours.
- In a small bowl whisk together cornstarch with water and drizzle around the meatballs(not on top of them).
- Cover, and cook another 20 minutes.
- Serve over mashed potatoes with a sprinkle of parsley, and enjoy!
Mashed Potatoes
- When the meatballs are almost done cooking, prepare these simple mashed potatoes. (peel potatoes or leave the skins on for a more rustic dish)Add potatoes to a pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and cook until fork tender.drain and mash potatoes. season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder(taste as you go), and add a healthy drizzle of dairy free creamer and/or a knob of vegan butter. Then, and heres the trick: "whip" the potatoes bu mixing them quickly in one direction with a regular spoon.
