Left over massive amount of mashed tater ideas? shawn

[Guest guest]

hey shawn,

you can make potato cakes with mashed potatoes.

really, all you have to do is form into a patty and

fry in butter or oil. you can add flour and/or eggs

if you mashed potatoes are too thin.

 

you cold use them to make soup or chowder. thin the

potatoes with veggie broth for potatoe soups. add

sauteed leeks for a different version. also, you can

add corn (and roasted red pepper or chiles) to make a

corn chowder. add cooked and pureed spinich or

watercress for a yummy soup.

 

you can add kale to the mashed potatoes. look for a

colcannon recipe and modify it to use your leftovers.

 

use your mashed potatoes to make irish potato candy or

some kind of potato bread. i'm sure you could find

recipes online.

 

and finally, you can top a mound of mashed taters like

you would a baked potato. add sour cream, chives,

cheese, fakin bacon bits. or, top with broccoli and

cheese sauce. i have heard that there are actually

restaurants that only served topped mashed potatoes.

 

hope this helps,

susie
