Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Rub the potatoes in olive oil, salt, and garlic powder, and roast for about 25 minutes until browned and fully cooked through.
In a stand mixer with a paddle attachment (if you don't have one, just use a potato masher), mash the potatoes and tofu, and slowly add milk. Add in the nutritional yeast, salt, and garlic powder, and keep mashing until smooth.
In a small pan, heat up the olive oil and mushrooms on 70% heat. Cook until reduced, then add balsamic vinegar until it becomes very thick (but not until it hardens). Add on top of the potatoes and enjoy!
