Fresh Spinach (2-3 handfuls)
Red Potatoes (4-6 small/med)
Frozen Garlic (2 cubes)
Butter (2-3 TBSP)
Organic Cream (1/2 cup - one cup or so - depends on how much you are willing to look past the fat content) :)
Ground Flax Seeds (a couple TBSP)
Salt (to taste)
(Frozen basil - 2 cubes optional)

*Boil potatoes covered (will take about an hour or so)
*Once a fork can go through them easily, pour off water and mash the potatoes with a fork, potato masher, or beaters (It doesn't matter which)
*Add one or two frozen garlic cubes
*Mix in cream and butter and a little salt (to texture and taste preference),
*Add ground flax (to add texture and fiber)
*Mash together until flavors are blended throughout
*Set "Mish-Mashed" potatoes aside (to let the flavors blend/set)

*Once the mish-mashed potatoes are done, Start the tetra pack of corn/pepper soup
*Add a couple handfuls of fresh spinach.
*Let heat covered on med or lower (not to boil, just to simmer) until the spinach is cooked down.

*For a serving, put some mashed potatoes in a bowl and cover with corn/pepper/spinach soup.
*Stir together to make a creamy potato/corn/pepper/spinach soup.

The flavors are out of this world! Very soothing and comforting while also being filling and YUMMY!!
(Can add frozen basil to "Mish-Mashed" potatoes when you add the frozen garlic for more flavor)
