Ingredients

Scale

  • 1/4 cup unsweetened plant-based milk (like almond or oat milk)
  • 2 tablespoons vegan butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup smoky BBQ jackfruit (store-bought or homemade)

  • 1/2 cup spicy roasted chickpeas
  • 1/2 cup sautéed mushrooms with garlic
  • 1/2 cup steamed broccoli florets

Instructions

  2. Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add the plant-based milk, vegan butter, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mash until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasonings to taste.
  3. Warm the jackfruit in a skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
  4. Mix diced avocado, tomato, red onion, lime juice, and cilantro in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. Toss canned chickpeas with olive oil, smoked paprika, and cayenne pepper. Roast at 400°F (200°C) for 20 minutes.
  6. Heat a small skillet with oil, add sliced mushrooms and minced garlic, and cook until browned and tender.
  7. Steam broccoli florets for 5-7 minutes until vibrant green and tender-crisp.
  8. Scoop mashed potatoes into bowls and add your desired toppings. Feel free to mix and match for a unique flavor explosion!

Notes

[‘Russet potatoes are ideal for their fluffy texture, but Yukon Golds work well for a creamier result.’, ‘Mash the potatoes gently to avoid a gummy texture.’, ‘Season the mashed potatoes generously for the best flavor.’, ‘Prepare toppings ahead of time to save time on busy nights.’, ‘Keep mashed potatoes warm by covering the pot or placing it over very low heat while preparing toppings.’]
