Christmas Mashed Potatoes

I know I already have a mashed potato recipe on here, but here's a Christmas style that we did for our Christmas dinner up in Canada! 

3 pounds yukon gold potatoes
1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk at room temp
3/4 teaspoon salt (plus more for the water)
Several dashes fresh black pepper

1/2 t. basil

Okay, so you will want to peel the potatoes, cut them into chunks and then cover them with water. Put the salt in and bring them to a boil. Once they've reached a boil, simmer them for about 12 minutes and check to make sure that they're tender. Drain all the water out of them and start mashing! Add some unsweetend almond milk at room temperature. I have 1/2 a cup there, just to be able to start with something, but I usually add some more (I don't know how much, it goes in dashes at a time) until it's nice and creamy, likeyou like it. Add in the black pepper and serve warm. Add some salt too if you want to! Enjoy!
