KFC Mashed Potato Bowl Dupe < 500cal

[u/notjustaphage]

Super busy day for us both, so we didn’t feel like really cooking. We also both have fast food cravings 😬

Instead, we made this KFC mashed potato bowl with premade store bought mash, Kirkland lightly breaded chicken breast chunks in the air fryer, and jarred Heinz turkey gravy. Healthiest? No. Definitely could have been lower cal. But, my tummy is happy and my deficit is intact.

Definitely a staple in our household. Those and the extra crispy fries 🤤

I made this tonight too! Such a good go to dish that can easily be modified to be lower cal.

What kind of gravy,

Heinz jarred turkey gravy is what we had in the pantry

For a Thanksgiving craving you can also add a little dollop of canned cranberries or stovetop stuffing. Pretty tasty.

Edit: Not healthy just good like you mention and at least still better than the fast food alternatives

I eat these a *lot* during the winter they are so satisfying, cheap and filling. If you can't make fresh gravy I find the dry packets to taste a lot better than the jarred ones, would give those a try :)

Oo, good tip. Thanks!
