Healthy Garlic Mashed Potatoes

 These are my husband's FAVORITE potatoes! They have tons of flavor without all the fat. In the past I made them with sour cream, but I decided to try and lighten them up a bit by using Greek yogurt instead. You couldn't even tell! They were delicious!

Healthy Garlic Mashed Potatoes

Ingredients:

4 medium size red potatoes

1/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 tablespoon butter

Directions:

Sprinkle potatoes with Parmesan cheese and seasonings. Mash potatoes with a potato masher and gradually add milk (depending on how creamy or chunky you want the potatoes you can had more or less milk), Greek yogurt, and butter.
