SUBMITTED BY: Deanne  PHOTO BY: { Heidi } Supporting Member (Click to learn more about Supporting Membership)

"Crispy, golden and cheesy! Good use of leftover mashed potatoes. This recipe is very versatile: you can add minced garlic, chives, or 1/4 cup of any shredded raw vegetable, or substitute the cheese with a tablespoon of sugar and serve with maple syrup."
