Notes
Dairy free milk you can use:
Soy
Almond How to store leftovers: Allow the mashed potatoes to cool down completely. Place in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days. How to freeze: I don’t advise freezing mashed potatoes as they will lose texture. If you want to freeze, divide into portions, place in ziplock bags and freeze. Defrost completely before reheating. How to reheat: Reheat in the microwave on low medium heat until warm through.
