Mashed Potatoes!!

-
A lot of people say that potatoes in general aren't the healthiest of options and that there's plenty of other healthier options like sweet potatoes or cauliflower but I personally just love potatoes and can not and I mean can not live without eating them. And one of my favorite ways to eat potatoes is when they're mashed but as usual the traditional mashed potatoes recipe has tons of butter and full-cream milk that just adds heaps of unwanted saturated fats. So, I came up with a healthy and modified way to make mashed potatoes that are creamy and taste amazing with only four ingredients.
The ingredients:
~1 medium sized potato.
~1 Tbsp of olive oil.
~Salt and pepper. (Adjust to taste.)
Instructions:
-Start by boiling the potatoes until soft before peeling them.
-Then add the potatoes, olive oil, salt and pepper to the mixer before blending them together until smooth.
-And BAM!!  you can enjoy your warm and delicious mashed potatoes.
Notes:
-You can of course double this recipe or triple it if you're cooking to more than one person.
-You can add some cilantro or green onions for added flavor
.
-Add these mashed potatoes to your grilled chicken or fish as a side dish with some sauteed vegetables and you'll have a balanced meal that has proteins, carbs, healthy fats and veggies.



Hope you enjoy your creamy mashed potatoes and let me know if you make them, you can find me on Instagram and Twitter @sara_guesses and on my Facebook page Sara Guesses. and it'd be really great if you could follow me and like my page :)
Also, I do not own the rights to pictures used, I just found them on google.

Imma' tell you something if you think you're fat then you probably are in fact fat but f*cking own it. I mean who the hell said that it's a bad thing? Because unless it's seriously affecting your health, it isn't really bad. You think you're too skinny or in other words flat with nothing feminine about you? well, again you probably are but then again it's fine so f*cking own it. And again unless it's seriously harming your health, it's fine. We grow up with this pressure to look a certain way because otherwise we're not beautiful but really we should just stop that and stand in front of the mirror and look at ourselves, really look at ourselves, with our  own eyes and not with our spouse's, our parents' or society's eyes just our eyes. Only then can we decide if we want to change something in the way we look or not. Because 99% of the time we don't want to change for ourselves but for the people around us be it your bo
