Mashed Potatoes

Ingredients

8 to 10 garlic cloves

2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, quartered

1/3 cup light sour cream

1/4 cup fat-free milk

1 tablespoon snipped fresh oregano, rosemary, or thyme

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper


Directions

1. To roast garlic, wrap unpeeled cloves in foil. Bake in a 400-degree oven 25 to 35 minutes or until cloves feel soft when pressed. When cool enough to handle, squeeze garlic from peels into a small bowl.
2. Meanwhile, put potatoes in a large saucepan with enough cold water to cover. Bring to a boil over high heat. Lower heat to maintain a simmer and cook until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain potatoes; return to saucepan.
3. Mash potatoes and softened garlic with a potato masher or an electric mixer on low speed. Add sour cream; milk; oregano, rosemary, or thyme; salt; and black pepper. Beat until light and fluffy.
