Pinch of Pepper

Pinch of Salt

Dash of Cinnamon

Preheat Oven to 400

Directions;

1. In medium saucepan pour 1 tsp. of Extra Virgin Olive Oil and put on medium heat. Add Spinach and stir often until wilted. Remove from pan and set aside. When cool, squeeze liquid out of the Spinach and chop.

2. In large saucepan add your Sweet Italian Turkey Sausage. Cook until completely browned and finished. Set aside.

3. In small sauce pan add 1 tsp. of Extra Virgin Olive Oil on medium heat. Add onions and garlic. Cook until translucent. Set aside.

4. Add potatoes to boiling water (high heat). Cook until a tender.

5. Put potatoes into bowl. Add 1/2 cup cheese, 1/2 cup of Almond Milk, 1 1/2 tbsp. of butter, 1 tbsp. Cider Vinegar, all Spinach, Pinch of Salt, Pinch of Pepper and a dash of Cinnamon. Mash. I prefer ours mashed with chunks rather than smooth. (texture)

6. Layer the bottom of your dish with the Mashed Potato Mixture.

7. Combine the Onion/Garlic with the Sausage. Once blended, pour over your Mashed Potato Mixture. Top with remainder of cheese.

8. Put into preheated oven for 20-30 minutes until cheese is completely melted and the potatoes are turning a golden brown.
