Per Serving: 147 calories, 1 g fat, 1 g sat fat, 5 g protein, 31 g carbohydrates, 3 g fiber, 2 mg cholesterol, 400 mg sodium
Yield: Yields 8 - 1.25-cup servings
Ingredients
- 1 Tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 bunch leeks (about 12 oz) light green and white part only, cleaned and sliced
- 1 container (32 oz) fat-free reduced-sodium chicken or vegetable broth
- 2 ½ lbs Yukon Gold potatoes (4 large), peeled, diced into 1/2 inch chunks (about 6 cups)
- 1 tsp salt or to taste
- Freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 1/3 cup fat-free Greek yogurt
- Chives for garnish (optional)
Instructions
Melt butter in a large saucepan. Add leeks; cover and cook over medium-low heat, stirring often, until tender, about 10 minutes.
Add broth, potatoes, salt and pepper and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes.
Mash in pot with a potato masher until desired consistency. (If serving cold, you may want to puree until smooth in a blender or in pot using an immersion blender).
Serve topped with Greek yogurt, freshly ground black pepper and chives, if desired.
