Mashed Sunchokes

I had very little in my fridge after being gone for the Christmas holiday, do I was excited to find in my fridge sunchokes and red potatoes from my last farmers market venture. I boiled both of them together until both were easily pierced through with a fork. Then drained the water and mashed them with fat free half and half, smart balance, pepper and this fantastic sage/rosemary infused salt ( thanks mom and dad for that fantastic Christmas present). This dish was so simple yet tasted amazing. The sunchokes gave the potatoes a nice sweet earthiness and the hint of rosemary and sage was perfect. Obviously as not everyone has that salt I would suggest adding just a tiny, tiny bit of dried sage and rosemary to the mix. Oh and I would normally use skim milk, but as I didn't have any the fat free half and half made a fantastic substitute.
