Purplemaniacs Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 Can I feed the girls mashed potato as a treat in the afternoon, we often have some left over from dinner. I know they can't have raw potato but not sure about mashed? Thanks Chrissie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 they ADORE the stuff I often make it just for them and sometimes stir in a tin of tuna chunks (brine rinsed off) for extra protein. I don't add salt or butter to the mash I make especially for the girls but if we have any leftover mash from dinner, it does have some butter and milk in it but then they only have a small amount of that.

moomin Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 Mine love mashed spuds. I cook it specially for them and often make it creamy with a spoonful of probiotic yoghurt. And I chuck in a few peas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purplemaniacs Posted February 5, 2009 Author Share Posted February 5, 2009 Well you were all right They had mashed potato this afternoon for the first time and they loved it. I am sure it cheered them up as they were not impressed by all the snow this morning. Thanks for the information. Chrissie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
