Can I Make This Recipe Ahead Of Time For Thanksgiving?
Yes! No one wants to be stuck in the kitchen all day on Thanksgiving! You can prepare this recipe up to three days in advance. To reheat, simply place it in the oven at 350°F for 30 minutes, or on the stovetop over medium heat. Be sure to mix up the mash throughout the cook time to ensure it reheats evenly.

Are There Any Substitutions I Can Use?
While Heinen’s coconut milk is Club Fx-approved, if you do not have it on-hand, simply use regular milk.

By Heinen's Grocery Store
In 1929, Joe Heinen opened the doors of a small butcher shop on the east side of Cleveland, Ohio, aiming to establish himself as the city’s purveyor of quality meats. As customers came into Heinen’s new shop for their meat purchases, they began asking him to carry groceries as well. Joe added homemade peanut butter, pickles and donuts and by 1933, business had grown enough to include a line of produce and canned goods. Heinen’s Grocery Store was born.
