I wanted to create a unique side dish recipe. Mashed potatoes are definitely not my personal favorite. Don't come at me. They're just boring. I've been on a butternut squash kick and decided it would make the BEST alternative to mashed potatoes. I was right. I will absolutely be making this recipe all year round!

To make this veggie mash more special, I topped it off with Primal Kitchen's No Dairy Mushroom Gravy. It's super creamy from the cashew butter and filled with pieces of mushrooms! It's organic, soy-free, gluten-free, grain-free, Keto Certified and Certified Paleo.

They also sell an amazing No Dairy Classic Gravy made with Turkey Bone Broth! I recommend grabbing one or two of each for your holiday get together. Head to www.primalkitchen.com to purchase their gravy. Use code "frozenbananas" at checkout for a discount!
