Ingredients
  

  • 1 extra large russet potato
  • 1 large broccoli crown
  • 1/4 cup butter (or ghee)
  • 1/4 cup milk (any milk)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 pinch pepper (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Peel and cut potatoes in 1 1/2 inch pieces and place in a pot of cool salted water. Water should cover the potatoes by two inches to have room for the broccoli. Place pot on medium-high heat.
  • Meanwhile, cut broccoli into florets. Once the water comes to a boil reduce heat to maintain a medium-low boil and cook potatoes for 12 minutes.
  • Add broccoli to the pot and continue to cook the potatoes and broccoli for another 10 minutes. When a fork can easily pierce the stem they are ready to mash.
  • Drain the water and mash with butter, milk, and salt.
