Fluffy, low-fat hassle-free potatoes - perfect for any meal!
Ingredients:
  • 1 1/3 cups water
  • 1/3 to 1/ cup fat-free (skim) milk
  • 1 tablespoon margarine or butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/3 cups Betty Crocker™ mashed potatoes
Instructions:
  • Bring the water, milk, margarine, and salt to a boil, then take off the heat.
  • Gently fold in dry potatoes until just combined. Allow to rest for approximately 30 seconds until the liquid is fully absorbed.
  • Whip mashed potatoes until desired fluffiness achieved. For microwave directions, combine hot water, dry potatoes, milk, margarine, and salt in a microwavable bowl until moistened. Cover with plastic wrap, leaving one side open for venting. Microwave on High for 2 to 3 minutes until hot and bubbly. Be cautious when removing from the microwave as the bowl and potatoes will be hot. Whip with fork to desired fluffiness. For Chicken-Flavored Reduced-Fat Mashed Potatoes, follow package instructions for 3 to 4 servings, adding 2 teaspoons chicken bouillon granules and 1 teaspoon parsley flakes with the water, or use chicken broth instead of water.
