Ingredients
1 pound medium baking potatoes, diced
2 tablespoon minced garlic
1 cup canned pumpkin
2 tablespoon reduced-fat cream cheese
1 tablespoon butter
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 cup fat-free milk
sage leaves, to garnish
Directions
In a covered large saucepan, cook the potatoes and garlic in enough boiling water to cover until the potatoes are tender, 20 to 25 minutes; drain. Mash with a potato masher or beat with an electric mixer on low speed until nearly smooth. Beat in the canned pumpkin, cream cheese, butter, salt, pepper, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Gradually add the milk, beating until light and fluffy. Return to the saucepan to heat through.
If desired, spoon mashed potatoes into miniature pumpkin bowls and garnish with sage leaves.
