Mashed Broccoli Baked Potato


~3 pounds red potatoes, cubed
~4 cups broccoli florets
2/3 cup warm milk
1 c shredded jack cheese
1/2 t salt
fresh ground pepper to taste

Bring 1 inch of water to a boil in a large pot. Place potatoes in a steamer basket and steam for 15 minutes. Place broccoli on top, cover and steam until the potatoes and broccoli are tender, 8 minutes more. Transfer broccoli and potato to a large bowl and coarsely mash. Add cheese, milk and salt and continue mashing to desired consistency; add pepper to taste. Serve immediately.


Chef's Note: Never use a mixer to mash potatoes unless making a souffle.
