From Rachel Ray, delicious, delightful, quick and easy, and easy on the calories as well! A real YUMMO side dish, even if you aren't a fan of hers.
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 pounds small similar sized red skinned potatoes so they will cook at the same time and no cutting required shopping list
- coarse salt - I use kosher shopping list
- 1 cup stock or chicken broth ( If you are vegetarian use vegetable stock) shopping list
- 1 cup store bought pesto from the refrigerated section shopping list
- 1 or more cloves garlic to taste (optional) shopping list
How to make it
- Wash the potatoes and place in a large pot of water. If any are larger, cut to similar size as rest so they cook evenly.
- When water boils, add salt and any additional garlic cloves and cook until tender, about 10 to 12 minutes.
- When done, drain, and return to hot pot. Let them steam off excess water until steam subsides.
- Add broth or stock and lightly smash, there will be more mashing in a minute. Make sure you get any additional garlic cloves really well mashed up though.
- Add the pesto, and smash to desired consistency. It actually tastes better somewhat lumpy. (I'm extra good at leaving in the lumps!)
