Creamy Mashed Potatoes

potatoes, diced

2 tbs

butter

plain low-fat yogurt

1/4 tsp

salt

1/8 tsp

pepper

Peel potatoes, if you don't like the skin.

Joan	I was really glad to find this recipe. It has made a big difference in how my potatoes turn out. I never realized why my potatoes would finish up gluey. Very interesting. Thank you.	*****	*****	Simple
