  1. YUMMY! We NEVER have left over mashed potatoes, so I made instant mashed potatoes (we really like them just as much as real ones :) just so I could try this recipe. Everyone loved it, even the kids. Next time I make mashed potatoes and serve them "as is", I will make extra so we can have this dish a couple nights later. It is REALLY tasty and not "same old, same old"! Thanks!
     
  2. Yum! Thanks for a great recipe to use up those leftover mashed potatoes. cut the recipe down to serve 2 and it worked great. I can foresee a lot of wonderful additions to this as well. will definitely be using this recipe again!
     
  3. Yum! These are so good. I served these for brunch, and they were gone fast! Everyone loved them, thanks for a great side dish for any time of day!
     
  4. I made this tonight to use up mashed potatoes from Monday night. While I didn't use bacon or cheese, this was still delicious. I usually don't like leftover mashed potatoes because the consistency changes but I re-whipped the potatoes with low fat sour cream, milk and green onions amd he result was yummy. I will definitely use this recipe again to use up mashed potatoes.
     
  5. I have been making this and recommending it to others for a while now. Made it last week and DD(9) RAVED about the taste. she absolutely loved it -- it's her new fave!

  2. What a great way to use the leftover boiled potatoes from St Patrick's Day! I used a leek and fat free plain yogurt instead of the sour cream. This was creamy and had wonderful consistency along with great taste.
