Recipe Ingredients:

• 1 pound new or baby potatoes, scrubbed and cut into 1-inch chunks
• 2 slices bacon
• 1/3 cup low-fat milk or buttermilk
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
• 1/3 cup reduced-fat sour cream
• 2 scallions, sliced

Recipe Steps:

1. Place potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with 2 inches of water. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium and cook, partially covered, until tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain and transfer to a large bowl.
2. Meanwhile, cook bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crisp. Drain on a paper towel. Crumble when cool enough to handle.
3. Mash the potatoes, milk (or buttermilk), salt and pepper with a potato masher until the liquid is incorporated but some chunks of potato still remain. Fold in sour cream, scallions and the crumbled bacon.
