Ingredients
Mashed Potatoes (4 servings):
- 3 lb yellow potatoes 1.36 kg
- 2 tbsp vegan butter 30 mL
- 1/4 cup non-dairy milk add more depending on how creamy you like it. My potatoes were really creamy already, so I didn't need as much as I thought, unsweetened Veggemo brand
- salt to taste
Creamed Spinach (4 servings)
- 2 tbsp vegan butter 15 mL
- 1 onion finely diced, medium
- 4 cloves garlic finely minced
- 2 tbsp all-purpose flour 30 mL; use cornstarch if gluten-free
- 1 cup non-dairy milk unsweetened Veggemo brand, 250 mL
- 2 tbsp mushroom broth powder or salt to taste
- 1/4 cup nutritional yeast
- 8 spinach roughly chopped (about 1 of those big boxes of baby spinach, heaping cups
- black pepper to taste
- nutmeg optional, a sprinkle
Instructions
Mashed Potatoes:
- Scrub potatoes clean and cut into 1-inch cubes. Add to pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook until fork-tender (about 20 minutes). Turn off the heat, drain most water, then cover with lid while you prepare other dishes (like creamed spinach =P). Once ready to eat your dinner, drain the remaining water, mash with butter, Veggemo non-dairy milk, and salt to taste. Serve with gravy, chives, or whatever you like.
Creamed Spinach
- In a pan over medium heat, melt butter. Sauté onion until translucent, then add minced garlic and continue cooking until fragrant.
- Stir in flour until it absorbs the liquid from the butter and onions.
- Add a splash or two of the cup of Veggemo until flour absorbs the liquid. Add the remaining Veggemo non-dairy milk and stir until ingredients are incorporated. Add mushroom broth powder and nutritional yeast and continue cooking until its thickened, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add spinach and cook until just wilted. Taste and adjust salt and pepper. Take off the heat and serve immediately (don't want them to get mushy!).
- For a traditional creamed spinach taste, add a sprinkle of nutmeg before serving.
Notes
- Alternatively for the creamed spinach, you can blanch the spinach first, drain, and shock into an ice bath, then roughly chop and squeeze out extra moisture. Stir it into the roux sauce and adjust seasoning as desired. It just won't be as warm but it will be a thicker consistency than if you cooked it without blanching and draining.
