How to Make Simple Kale Mashed Potatoes
- Peel and chop 2 pounds of russet potatoes into 1-inch cubes.
- Place potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil over high heat.
- Reduce heat to medium-high and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes.
- While potatoes are cooking, wash and roughly chop 1 bunch (about 10 ounces) of kale.
- Add the chopped kale to the pot with the potatoes during the last 5 minutes of cooking time.
- Once potatoes are tender, drain the potatoes and kale mixture thoroughly.
- Return the mixture to the pot. Add 1/2 cup of whole milk ricotta cheese, 4 tablespoons of butter (or margarine), 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper.
- Mash coarsely with a potato masher or fork until desired consistency is reached. Leave some chunks for texture!
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
