Taking mashed potatoes to the next level!

Some interesting concepts there, they look really tasty, I try to stay away from mashed potatoes for my upper arms sake..but every now and will indulge.
 
I will eat sweet potatoes , I also mash butternut squash and acorn squash and even cauliflower as substitutes for the nasty white potato.
 

I fancy all of the dishes, but if I give in and start eating like I really would like to I would gain very quickly and a lot.

When I quit smoking I gained about 30 lbs and not the first yr; I was quite proud of myself but slowly after that and it took a long time to lose it all.
 
I did the same thing when I quit smoking. I gained weight steadily for two years and it took longer than that to get back to normal. That was over 18 years ago. Now I usually stay within 10 pounds or so of where I should be.

We haven't made mashed potatoes in a long time, but we like Yukon Gold potatoes boiled, broken up and topped with chives, parsley, light olive oil and a pat of Smart Balance Original spread. Back in the day I used to make mashed potatoes for holidays with heavy cream and butter, super rich and fattening for sure...eating a bit healthier as I age.
