Mashed Potatoes are the perfect comfort food, but top them with a creamy mushroom gravy and you will bring this dish to heavenly status! One of my favorite meals that both my mom and grandma used to make included a huge serving of mashed potatoes and gravy. My version of their recipe is Plant Based Vegan and Oil Free. Using almond milk instead of regular milk and nutritional yeast to give it that buttery flavor.
