Make this recipe a recipe that people in that category can eat. categories: ['low_carb'], recipe: peel, cube, boil, drain and "mush" potatoes to the consistency you like (i like them lumpy, but my kids like smaller pieces). in separate pan, melt butter, add flour and cook while stirring for about a minute or so. add half the milk and stir until lumps are out of flour mixture. add remaining milk and on med-high heat, heat to a boil. stir almost constantly or it will scorch. after boiling, turn heat off and add remaining ingredients.

Target recipe: saute veggies and garlic in butter for about 15 minutes. add water, bay leaf, and basil; simmer, covered, until vegetables are tender. 20 - 25 minutes. mash the veggies or process briefly in a food processor. do not make it into a homogenous mix. you should still be able to discern separate ingredients and colors. add the chicken stock and optional meat. heat and season with worcestershie and paprika before serving.
