Boursin Mashed Potatoes
A delicious, herbed, cheesy mashed potato casserole
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes 3 large
- 2/3 cup homemade breadcrumbs from 2 slices whole grain bread
- 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 5.2 ounces Boursin garlic herb cheese
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt whole, low-fat, or nonfat
- 1/2 cup milk whole, low-fat, or nonfat
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
- 2 tablespoons minced chives
Instructions
- Peel your potatoes and cut them into 1-inch pieces. Place them in a saucepan an fill it with water, about one inch over the potatoes. Bring the pot to a boil, reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the pot, and let the potatoes simmer for 15-20 minutes or until they're tender.
- While the potatoes boil, combine the breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, and olive oil in a small bowl. Mix well to combine and set the Parmesan breadcrumbs aside.
- Preheat the oven to 350℉ and set the rack to the middle position. Spray an 8 x 8 inch casserole dish with cooking spray and set it aside.
- When the potatoes are tender, drain them well in a colander.
- Return the potatoes to the pot and mash them well with a potato masher. Add the Boursin cheese, Greek yogurt, milk, salt, and pepper. Mix well with a spatula to incorporate the ingredients. Taste and add extra salt if needed.
- Transfer the mashed potatoes to the prepared casserole dish. Sprinkle the breadcrumbs over the top and then the chives.
- Bake for 30 minutes or until the crumbs are golden and the potatoes are hot.
