Kale Mashed

I was remembering a recipe for Bubble and Squeak from the old PBS show 'Two Fat Ladies,' but it requires using the stove top and fry pan, and it was just too hot today. So this is merely reminiscent of the real thing; not even a knock off.  I used what I call purple potatoes, but discovered they are actually called blue potatoes.

Cook in microwave - till tender
2 blue potatoes, cut up (with peel)
1.5 yellow potatoes, cut up (with peel)



Mash potatoes with
1/2 to 2/3 cup fat free milk
2 tsp butter
1 tsp ground pepper
1/4 tsp dill weed
1/4 tsp Ras el Hanout spice
1 tsp balsamic vinegar

Set aside 1/2 of the mashed potatoes for another meal.

Steam in microwave til limp (in Pampered Chef steamer)
1/3 cup onion
1 tsp garlic

Add and steam another 1.5 minutes
1+ cup kale, ripped to bite size pieces

Separately, heat in microwave 1 min, and then cut up
2 veggie patties (Morningstar)

Assemble in a bowl, and mix up
Mashed potatoes, kale with onion and garlic, and cut-up veggie patties

Serve on plate and splash with Worcestershire sauce  and enjoy!
