Acquired 3-working day previous leftover mashed potatoes? I have a tasty resolution. Don’t squander them, make them into these group-satisfying appetizer.

You can increase one particular or far more eggs and adjust the grated cheese and seasoning dependent on how several cups of potatoes you have left. These come collectively rapidly, and can be pan-fried, air-fried, or baked in a scorching oven. These are so good they are worth making fresh mashed potatoes for! Even so, refrigerated leftovers get the job done best (and, reports have proposed that cooled potatoes have much more resistant starch).

Take pleasure in!
