File #26 Almost Thanksgiving.

This year Agent Rhinestone will attempt to prepare some vegan Thanksgivnig cuisine for her Tofurkey Day dinner guests...

Here is her stellar recipe for Garlic Mashed Potatoes....(even though she isn't too fond of garlic.)

Vegan Garlic Mashed Potatoes
• 6 pounds russet potatoes
• 2 heads garlic, tops trimmed off
• 1 stick soy margarine, room temperature
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 to 2 cups soymilk, warmed
• 2 Tbs fresh parsley, chopped
• freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Directions:
Pour youreself a glass of Shiraz!
Put on your favorite apron. Agent Rhinestone likes to wear a shear apron with yellow rose appliques!

Heat oven to 350°.

Wrap garlic heads in tinfoil and cook in oven until cloves are soft and kinda mushy, (about 50 minutes or whatever.)

While garlic is roasting, wash and peel potatoes....and apply some fresh lipstick.

Drop them into a pot of cold water (make sure the potatoes are completely immersed).

Add salt and bring to a boil. Simmer until nice and tender, then drain.
Heat the soymilk over low heat.

Beat potatoes, adding warm soymilk gradually, until the desired consistency is reached.

Squeeze head of garlic so that the mushy cloves slide out. eeeeeew!

Add to potatoes, beat. You can also ask the man of the house to do this part for you because it can sometimes be so tiresome!

Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Ta da!
