Question- can I make these 1 day ahead and reheat?

Hi there, Debbie, yes, you can make these mashed potatoes a day ahead! Just store them in an airtight container in the fridge and reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave, adding a little extra cream or butter if needed to bring back the creaminess ☺️

Positively surprised how yummy the mashed potatoes came out with yoghurt πŸ˜‹ ... we added a bit of nutmeg and garlic granulate.

I would have never thought to add yogurt to mashed potatoes, but it turned out really good! I used the So Delicious plain coconut yogurt and I also added a little bit of garlic powder.

Woop woop! So happy to hear, Tischan, thank you πŸ˜ƒ
