7 Simple But Savory Potato Recipes (and You’ve Got to Try the Casserole)

If there’s one ingredient everyone can love, surely it’s the potato.

Veggie haters like to pretend it’s not a veggie and chow it down right alongside a hunk of meat. And vegetarians celebrate this tuber in style with decadent dishes like crispy potatoes topped with vegan avocado aioli. The potato gets dressed up for fancy French dinners and dressed down for good ol’ fashioned French fries, and the only downside is good potato dishes can be absolute calorie bombs.

These 7 healthy potato recipes pare down the calorie count of the classics without cutting out any flavor. You’ll get plenty of nutrients too – so forget that myth about potatoes being “empty calories.” One potato contains a third of daily recommended value of vitamin B6, meet a quarter of your daily potassium’s needs, and has a healthy amount of copper, manganese, antioxidants, and vitamin C too.

 

Potato Dauphinoise

Too many traditional dinners have been banished in the name of “clean eating.” It’s possible to rethink your favorite recipes so they’re lighter but don’t lose the flavor of the real thing.

This popular French potato dish uses a lot of butter, milk, and cream to taste rich and delicious. But the version from Make it Lighter by Angela Nilsen cuts the total calories, fat, and salt in half. The result is an indulgent-tasting side dish to serve alongside your favorite protein for a healthy meat-and-potatoes meal.

make-it-lighter

Serves 6

Ingredients

1 tsp. olive oil

2/3 cup low-fat milk

1 large garlic clove, peeled and halved

4 sprigs of thyme, plus more for garnish

1 bay leaf

1 shallot, roughly chopped

Good pinch of freshly grated nutmeg

2 1/4 lb. waxy potatoes

5 oz. full-fat crème fraîche (replace half with low-fat milk, if desired)

1/3 cup vegetable broth

1 tsp. dried thyme

1 oz. gruyere cheese

Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 325°F. Prepare a casserole dish by brushing oil over the bottom and sides.

2. Put the milk, garlic, thyme, bay leaf, and shallot into a saucepan. Bring just to a boil, and then remove from heat. Add nutmeg and a little pepper, and set aside to infuse while you prepare the potatoes.

3. Peel the potatoes and then slice very thinly. Pat them dry. Layer half of the slices in the dish, overlapping slightly, and then season with pepper and a little salt.

4. Strain the infused milk into a jug. Put the crème fraîche into a bowl, and then gradually pour in the milk, whisking until smooth. Add the stock and thyme leaves. Return the liquid to the jug, and then pour half of it over the potatoes in the dish.

5. Layer the rest of the potatoes in the dish. Add the remaining liquid, the cheese, and a grind of black pepper.

6. Place the casserole dish on a baking sheet, and bake for 75 to 90 minutes. Once finished, the potatoes will be golden and tender. Test by inserting a sharp knife through the middle.

7. Let stand for five minutes before serving. Sprinkle with small sprigs of thyme, and enjoy.

Healthy Mashed Potatoes Wrapped in Spinach

healthy-recipes-potato Picture & recipe courtesy of Skinny Ms.

There are a lot of ways to lighten mashed potatoes: replace the butter with Greek yogurt, switch out the full-fat sour cream for low-fat, and sneak in other veggies like cauliflower.

But this has to be one of the most unique – not to mention healthiest – ways to serve classic mashed potatoes. Until the fresh spinach leaves are peeled off, everyone’s favorite side dish is unrecognizable.

Serves 4

Ingredients

5 oz. large-leaf spinach

9 oz. potatoes, peeled and cubed

1/4 tsp. salt

1/8 tsp. freshly ground black pepper

1/4 cup low-fat buttermilk (or milk)

1 Tbsp. almond oil (or walnut oil, sunflower oil, etc.)

Instructions

1. Boil a pot of salted water. To the side, set a bowl of ice water. Over high heat, blanch the spinach for about 30 seconds. Quickly transfer it to the water to stop the cooking.

2. Spread out the spinach on a plate, and carefully pat dry. Divide the spinach leaves by four. Set aside.

3. In the same pot where you cooked the spinach, boil the potatoes for about 20 minutes, or until tender.

4. In a large bowl, mash the potatoes. Then mix in the oil, buttermilk, salt, and pepper.

5. Spread out one-fourth of the spinach leaves on a plate, and spoon a quarter of the mashed potatoes into the middle. Wrap the spinach leaves around the mashed potatoes, and gently press into a disc.

6. Repeat the previous step until all four servings are prepared.

Crispy Smashed Potatoes with Garlic-Avocado Aioli

potato-healthy-recipes Picture & recipe courtesy of Oh She Glows

These delectable looking smashed potatoes are vegan, but if you serve them for a special occasion, no one will have to know.

First, the potatoes are boiled until tender. Then, the skins get nice and crispy after being rubbed down with olive oil and roasted in the oven, and the final result is an amazing twice-baked potato.

The only possible improvement? If you’re not vegan, sprinkle some Parmesan cheese on top.

Serves 7

Ingredients

Potatoes:

2 lbs. Yukon Gold potatoes (red potatoes or new potatoes may work instead)

2 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil

Fine grain salt and freshly ground black pepper (be generous)

Garlic powder, for sprinkling on top

1/2 cup fresh parsley, minced

 Avocado Garlic Aioli:

1 large avocado, halved and pitted

1 large garlic clove

1/2 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice

1/4 cup vegan mayo

Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

1. Add potatoes into a large pot and cover with water. Place over high heat. Once the water boils, reduce heat slightly, and simmer uncovered for 20–25 minutes, until tender.

2. Meanwhile, prepare the avocado aioli. Add garlic into food processor, and process until minced. Place the avocado, lemon juice, mayo, and seasonings into the bowl, and process until smooth. Scrape down the bowl and add salt and pepper as needed.

3. When potatoes are fork tender, drain and set aside to cool for 10 minutes.

4. Preheat the oven to 450°F. Lightly grease a large baking sheet.

5. Place the potatoes on the baking sheet, and with the base of a heavy mug or measuring cup, smash the potatoes until mostly flattened. Some potatoes might break apart a little, and that’s ok.

6. Drizzle each potato with about a teaspoon of oil, and sprinkle a generous amount of salt and pepper over top. Add a pinch of garlic powder.

7. Roast the potatoes in the oven for 25–30 minutes until crispy, golden, and browned on the bottom. Keep an eye on them towards the end as the cook time varies depending on the size of the potatoes.

8. Remove from the oven, and sprinkle the potatoes with fresh parsley, more sea salt, and fresh ground pepper. Drizzle with avocado aioli, and devour immediately.

Parsnip, Potato & Leek Gratin

potato-healthy-recipe Picture & recipe courtesy of Healthy Seasonal Recipes

Part of the reason potatoes get a bad rap dishes like classic potato gratin are mostly potatoes, butter, and cheese.

This gratin has all the requisites but cuts back on the calories, making it viable for daily enjoyment.

 

Serves 12

Ingredients

2 1/4 cup low-fat milk, divided

2 cloves garlic, crushed

1/3 cup all-purpose flour

1 Tbsp. Dijon mustard

1 tsp. salt

1/4 tsp. freshly ground pepper, preferably white

Pinch of nutmeg

6 oz. extra-sharp cheddar cheese, shredded and divided

2 oz. Parmesan cheese, shredded

3 lbs. thin-skinned potatoes, thinly sliced (as with a mandolin)

1 lb. parsnips (about 2 medium), peeled and thinly sliced

2 medium leeks, thinly sliced and washed

2 slices mild whole-wheat bread

2 tsp. extra virgin olive oil

1/2 tsp. paprika

1/4 tsp. garlic powder

2 Tbsp. freshly chopped parsley

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9” x 13” rectangular baking dish.

2. In a large saucepan over medium-high, heat 1 1/2 cup milk with the garlic until steaming.

3. Meanwhile, whisk together the flour, mustard, salt, pepper, nutmeg, and the remaining ¾ cup milk in a medium bowl.

4. Once the garlicky milk is steaming, whisk in the flour mixture. Continue cooking, stirring often, until the mixture bubbles and thickens, about 7 minutes. Remove from the heat, and remove garlic cloves with a slotted spoon. Stir in a cup (4 oz.) of cheddar and Parmesan. Whisk until smooth.

5. Spread 3 tablespoons of the cheese sauce into the bottom of the rectangular baking dish. Layer in one third of the potatoes, parsnips, and leeks. Pour about one-third of cheese sauce over the vegetables. Repeat with two more layers of vegetables and cheese sauce.

6. Cover with a layer of parchment and then foil, and bake until the vegetables are tender. Start to check after 1 hour 30 minutes.

7. Tear bread into pieces, and use a food processor to create fine crumbs. Add oil, paprika, and garlic powder. Process until evenly moist and orange in color.

8. Remove foil from the gratin. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup (2 oz.) cheddar over the top. Spread the bread crumb mixture over the top, and return the baking dish to the oven for 20 more minutes, until golden brown.

9. Let cool 15 minutes before serving. Top with fresh parsley.

Baked Potato with Greek Yogurt and Sriracha-Roasted Chickpeas

recipe-healthy-potato Picture & recipe courtesy of Health Digezt

This baked potato is anything but boring. Then again, nothing with Sriracha could taste boring!

This recipe uses flavors from all over. Thai chili sauce is paired with Mediterranean ingredients like Greek yogurt, cucumber, and chickpeas. Then the ingredients are rounded out with cumin as well as dill.

It might sound like a lot, but it all comes together to elevate this simple potato. This is a carb-heavy dish for sure, but the garbanzo beans and yogurt add a significant helping of protein too.

Serves 4

Ingredients

4 medium potatoes, baked (or microwaved)

1 can (15 oz.) chickpeas

2 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil

1/2 tsp. cumin

1 tsp. Sriracha chili sauce (adjust to taste)

2 cups plain nonfat Greek yogurt

2 tsp. dried dill (or 2 Tbsp. fresh dill)

1 tsp. garlic powder

Salt and black pepper to taste

1 fresh cucumber, seeded and chopped

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F.

2. Toss the chickpeas with oil, cumin, Sriracha, and salt. Spread them out onto a cookie sheet, and bake 30–40 minutes, or until they start to look just a little bit browned.

3. Meanwhile, use a fork to whisk together the yogurt, dill, and garlic powder in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper.

4. Slice your baked potatoes almost all the way in half, leaving the bottom intact. Divide the yogurt mixture between the potatoes, and then top each one with a quarter of the chickpeas and a handful of chopped cucumber. Serve immediately.

Clinically Effective Ingredients & Doses

Many ingredients in supplements don’t have any scientifically validated benefits, and many ingredients that do are often underdosed to the point of irrelevance.

That’s why we only use the choice ingredients and precise doses shown to be effective in peer-reviewed scientific studies.

Clinically Effective Doses

You need more than great ingredients to make great products—you also need proper doses. That’s why we use the precise doses of ingredients shown to be effective in peer-reviewed scientific studies.

Natural Ingredients

“Natural” doesn’t always mean “better,” but in many cases, natural ingredients are superior to artificial ones for various reasons, including purity, safety, and efficacy.

That’s why all of our ingredients in all of our products come from plant and animal sources, including sweeteners, colors, and flavors.

Made in USA with Globally Sourced Ingredients

If you want to ensure the supplements you’re swallowing every day are safe and effective, you want products produced in the USA.

That’s why all of our supplements are made in America in NSF-certified and FDA-inspected facilities that operate in accordance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) regulations.

Lab Tested

Did you know that supplements can contain dangerously high levels of toxins like lead, arsenic, and cadmium?

That’s why we test every ingredient of every supplement we produce for heavy metals, microbes, allergens, and other contaminants and ensure they meet the strict purity standards set by the FDA.

Naturally Sweetened & Flavored

While artificial sweeteners may not be as dangerous as some people claim, studies suggest that regular consumption of these chemicals may indeed be harmful to our health.

That’s why all of our supplements are naturally sweetened and flavored and contain no artificial food dyes, fillers, or other unnecessary junk.

Some popular pre-workouts are all-natural. Some contain the right mix of high-quality ingredients. Some provide clinically effective doses. But only Pulse checks each of these boxes.

Pulse doesn’t just “contain natural ingredients''—every ingredient is naturally sourced from plants and animals. Pulse contains no artificial or synthetic substances of any kind.

Every serving of Pulse contains 15.1 grams of active ingredients that have been shown to be safe and effective in peer-reviewed scientific research.

Every active ingredient in Pulse is backed by published scientific studies that show benefits in healthy humans.

Pulse contains no harsh stimulants that wind you up and burn you out. Instead, it contains a 1:1 ratio of caffeine and L-theanine, which produces a smooth energy rush and comfortable comedown.

We carefully examined 508 pages of scientific research to find out exactly what should and shouldn’t be in a pre-workout supplement.

Every bottle of Pulse is guaranteed to provide exactly what the label claims and nothing else—no heavy metals, microbes, allergens, or other contaminants.

While these types of chemicals may not be as dangerous as some people claim, studies suggest that regular consumption of them may indeed be harmful to our health. And that’s why we don’t put any of them into our products.

Before you buy a sports supplement, you should know that it's clean, safe, and transparent. And that's exactly what Labdoor's third-party testing and certification means.

It's hard to know for sure, but this probably makes Pulse the most-popular all-natural pre-workout supplement in the world.

If you don’t absolutely love this product, just let us know, and we’ll give you a full refund on the spot. No forms or return necessary.
