Provided by Alqualonde

Number Of Ingredients 9

10 to 12 large organic red potatoes
3 to 3 1/2 cups cooked navy beans (two 15-oz cans)
1/4 cup soy-free Earth Balance buttery spread
2 tablespoons unsweetened/unflavoured almond milk
4 to 5 large cloves of garlic, minced
1 teaspoon sea salt, or to taste
1/2 teaspoon ground paprika
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Other herbs and seasonings as desired

Steps:

Wash potatoes with a potato scrubber, chop into large chunks, and toss into a large pot. I prefer to leave the skin on, but you can peel if desired. Fill pot with water until potatoes are covered. Cook on medium-high heat for about 30-35 minutes until fork tender. Drain potatoes and place in a large bowl. Drop in garlic cloves into a food processor (running) and process until finely chopped. Add drained and rinsed beans, salt, paprika, and process until mostly smooth. After cooling potatoes for a few minutes, take a potato masher and mash until desired consistency is achieved. Now add your milk and butter, and keep mashing. Add processed bean mixture to potato mixture and mash until smooth. Sprinkle with black pepper, other herbs, and additional sea salt. Serve with butter, salsa, ketchup, or BBQ sauce, and a serving of cooked veggies to round out the meal.
