OTL Mashed Potates

In typical Orange Tree Lane style we want you to scrub the skins of your potatoes and leave them on to benefit from the fiber. We've also eliminated some of the fat content so you can enjoy this delightful side dish more often without guilt. If you haven't purchased nutritional yeast yet, get some at a health food grocery store and start benefiting from the extra megadose of B vitamins. It has a slight buttery/nutty taste, so mashed potatoes are the perfect place to get some into your diet.
