A Thanksgiving Upgrade You Have to Try: Bone Broth Mashed Potatoes

Thanksgiving is one of those blessed events when we can throw our cares to the wind and eat all the carbs and all the pie. However! If we can pack some extra nutrition into all those classic Thanksgiving dishes, why not? Earlier this week, I shared some simple and healthy Thanksgiving sides, and now I’ve got another to add to the lineup: Bone Broth Mashed Potatoes.

Our friends at Bonafide Provisions came up with this recipe and it was just too good not to share. It has the gut-healing benefits of bone broth, lots of healthy fats (butter! avocado oil! coconut cream!), and, most importantly: plenty of garlic.
