This recipe for vegan garlic mashed potatoes is so delicious. I was making mashed potatoes for Easter dinner this year and wanted to try creating them dairy-free. This recipe is the perfect balance of coconut milk and seasonings to give it the classic mashed potatoes flavor with very healthy ingredients.
My grandmother used to make mashed potatoes for every holiday. It was my favorite food growing up and she even would bring me mashed potatoes in bed sometimes! She would go out to her garden to cut fresh chives. She was so amazing, I miss her! Anyhow- I hope you love this recipe for dairy-free vegan mashed potatoes.
