Mash Potatoes are a creamy and comforting dish made from boiled potatoes, butter, and milk, often enhanced with garlic or herbs for extra flavor. This beloved side originates from Europe, particularly the British Isles, where it has become a staple in homes worldwide. While rich and indulgent, mash potatoes provide a great source of vitamins C and B6, potassium, and fiber when prepared with the skin on. However, with added butter and cream, they can be calorie-dense. Enjoy them as a delightful addition to any meal, balancing indulgence with nutrition!
