Mashed Kohlrabi and Red Potatoes

Last updated: July 29, 2024

Not tried kohlrabi yet? Many Americans aren’t familiar with this vegetable. It’s popular in many Germanic countries and throughout Europe. Kohlrabi is related to the cabbage, broccoli, and cauliflower family. This means it provides good amounts of antioxidants. Maybe you’ve tried a mashed cauliflower recipe? This recipe I similar but provides a more robust flavor. Both cauliflower and kohlrabi are vegetables that provide more fiber than traditional potatoes. Keep the skins on your potatoes and bump the fiber up even more.
