Obtained 3-day aged leftover mashed potatoes? I have a delectable option. Don’t squander them, make them into these group-satisfying appetizer.

You can incorporate one particular or much more eggs and alter the grated cheese and seasoning dependent on how lots of cups of potatoes you have left. These come together promptly, and can be pan-fried, air-fried, or baked in a very hot oven. These are so fantastic they are worth generating fresh mashed potatoes for! Nonetheless, refrigerated leftovers get the job done best (and, research have proposed that cooled potatoes have far more resistant starch).

Enjoy!
