Ingredients

  • 1 1 ½ pounds. package Baby Boomer Creamer potatoes, halved
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter cut into pieces
  • ¼ cup + 2 tablespoon skim milk
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground pepper
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1 large shallot minced
  • 3 cups packed chopped kale
  • 2 tablespoons water

Instructions

  • Place the Creamer potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with cold water, 1 inch above the potatoes. Bring to a boil and cook until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork, about 20 minutes. Drain, then return to the saucepan.

  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet set over medium heat. Add the shallots and cook, stirring occasionally, until the shallots are tender and golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Stir in the kale and water, and cook until the kale is just wilted, about 2 minutes.
  • Stir the kale mixture and goat cheese into the mashed potatoes. Set over medium heat and cook, stirring, until the potatoes are heated, 1 to 2 minutes. Serve.
