Nutritional values

This variation on standard mashed potatoes is much lower in fat and calories than standard mashed potatoes, and is also vegetarian and rich in fiber, vitamins and minerals. Secondary plant substances like the glucosinolates in pointed cabbage and horseradish also protect the cells and strengthen the immune system.

Sprinkle these mashed potatoes with parsley or chives before serving for extra minerals, flavor and color.

Our apologies! It looks like the quantity (1/2 cup) was there but missing the important ingredient (low fat milk). We hope you will give this another try and thanks for letting us know so we could fix it for you.
 
Milk is called for in the instructions but is not in the ingredient list. I don't keep milk in the house except for recipes so this was frustrating.
