Directions
Step 1
Peel the potatoes and cut them into evenly sized chunks, approximately 1 inch in size.
Step 2
Place the potato chunks in a large pot and fill it with enough water to cover them by about an inch.
Step 3
Add a pinch of salt to the water and bring it to a boil over medium-high heat.
Step 4
Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and allow the potatoes to cook for about 15-20 minutes or until they are tender when pierced with a fork.
Step 5
While the potatoes are cooking, in a small bowl, mix together the low-fat sour cream, fat-free Greek yogurt, and low-fat milk until smooth and well combined.
Step 6
Drain the potatoes thoroughly and return them to the hot pot to help evaporate any remaining moisture.
Step 7
Mash the potatoes using a potato masher or hand mixer until they are smooth and free of lumps.
Step 8
Gradually stir the sour cream mixture into the mashed potatoes, incorporating it completely.
Step 9
Season the potatoes with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder, adjusting to taste.
Step 10
Fold in the chopped chives, reserving a little for garnish if desired.
