I tasted them and thought they were good. I'll be honest though I did add some extra butter. I love the method for using the leeks. I would like to try it with other greens.

I not a cooking enthusiast, so I'm always looking for recipes that are quick and easy. This recipe doesn't require many ingredients or a lot of time. Plus, it cuts the fat without compromising taste. I'm passing it on to friends and family.

There's no doubt that these mashed potatoes are a bit drier than their buttery cousins, but in my opinion, it's worth the cut in fat. Mashed potatoes, once a gluttonous treat, is now considerably lower fat. I've made it twice with the leeks, but I'm considering trying scallions instead next time for a change.
