Spinach Mashed Potatoes – Tasty Hidden Veggie Solution

You have got to try these easy spinach mashed potatoes.  Sneak spinach into your family’s dinner tonight and whip up these green mashed potatoes!

It’s no secret that deception is a perfectly acceptable parenting strategy in my household.  Example: my kids eat “green mashed potatoes.” They think it is fun.  I don’t tell them that the green color comes from spinach.  Deception works, people.  Don’t judge me.

Green Spinach Mashed Potatoes

These are actually really easy to whip up.  I just puree frozen spinach with milk, and then add the puree in when I mash potatoes like normal.

My kids are still in that “if it has more than 5 ingredients, I’m not eating it” phase, so dinners around here are usually pretty simple.  I just serve the green mashed potatoes with meatballs for dinner.  I’ll add a mixed veggie if I’m feeling extra fancy.
