Kathryn M on 2024-11-29 (5 stars): I was assigned mashed potatoes for Thanksgiving. One family member is dairy free and he just never gets to eat most of the sides on Thanksgiving. I came across this recipe and figured that I had all of the ingredients, so I made them for him. The only thing I did differently was to sauté the garlic in the pot with a little olive oil while the potatoes drained. My boyfriend and I both tasted these potatoes when they were done and they were delicious! We were both highly impressed! My dairy-free cousin at half of the pan at dinner and asked me to make them again for Christmas Eve! They're so easy and don't require anything special, how could I say no?!? We'll definitely be making these mashed potatoes again, and not just for those who are dairy-free!! Yum!
Suleima on 2026-08-15 (5 stars): WOW! Who knew dairy free mashed potatoes could taste just as good as the real thing?! My husband developed a dairy sensitivity so had to look up a dairy free version. Safe to say these are going to be a new favorite recipe!
Patricia on 2026-07-05 (5 stars): I was wondering when you added cream cheese?
Mia on 2025-08-26 (5 stars): I came across this because I was going to make dairy mashed potatoes, but I am a silly goose and didn't have milk or butter on hand and didn't check first...i used olive oil and garlic powder and cream of chicken soup + a little water & salt and pepper and they are pretty good honestly! Saved a trip to the store at 9 pm thank you!
Myra on 2025-03-02 (5 stars): I made this for my gluten free, dairy free, seed oil free friend (and for myself lol) and WOW this came out better than I was expecting. Will be making again ❤️ thank you
Julie G on 2024-11-28 (5 stars): Delicious! I just omitted the olive oil and used 2 T Earth Balance butter.
Jane W. on 2024-11-25 (5 stars): A good alternate option for dairy free. Thank you for the recipe👍🏻
Lorraine Runstedler on 2024-11-25 (5 stars): Pamela, you are amazing - I so love your recipes - have not tried this yet, but definitely will - speaking of potatoes, today am craving potatoes and onions(ha) - that is another recipe BUT, will try the mashed your way another time - Hope you are keeping well and Happy Thanksgiving my Brooklyn Farm Girl from your follower from Canada !!!
Patricia Collins on 2024-08-11 (5 stars): Just made this and it was delicious. First time making no dairy mashed potatoes and won’t be the last
stone on 2024-02-14 (5 stars): Thank you
Andrea on 2023-10-26 (5 stars): We all loved these mashed potatoes! I doubled the recipe and ended up adding about 4oz of Violife dairy free cream cheese. The garlic cloves I used were quite big so these were definitely garlicky, I would probably decrease the amount of garlic if the cloves I use are big next time. My husband (who loves dairy) said these were delicious and could definitely be served for Thanksgiving! Thanks so much!
