Glutenfree High Protein (NO Potato) Mash

This mash just screams spring! I see it and all I want to do is take a bowl full and eat my fill. The colours are amazing the taste was like a thick guacamole.

This is so gorgeous, not just the colour but the taste and texture. This is a very filling dish, you could have it all by itself. Or with a large salad or roasted vegetables, some seared steak on the side maybe, if you are into that sort of thing.

High protein, high fibre, low carb, low fat mash! 
Gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan and vegetarian friendly!

What more do you want? Oh did I forget to mention it's packed full of nutrients and healthy fats.
Not just great after a work out, but fantastic for your skin also.


Hope you will enjoy it as much as I did!
