- 2 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 small onion
- 2 medium carrots

Instructions
- If you’re making the two recipes together, I would begin with the Mini Garden Turkey Loaves.
- Once those are prepped and in the oven, you can start on the Spinach and Feta Mashed Potatoes.
- They cook quickly in the microwave, so you should be able to have them fully prepared by the time the turkey loaves are finished baking.
- If you prefer to bake the potatoes instead of microwaving them, start baking them before beginning the turkey loaves.
- They will bake the entire time you are preparing the turkey loaves, as well as while the turkey loaves are in the oven.
- They should both finish up at about the same time, then you’ll just need to mash the potatoes and stir in the seasonings.
- Read through both recipes completely (and check the step by step photos) before you begin, so you can have a mental game plan.
- Freeze leftovers beautifully by packing them in individual containers, chilling them in the refrigerator, then transferring them to the freezer.
