SOUP WITH WHITE BEANS AND HAM HOCK


 


There are some Thanksgiving leftovers that taste better the next day, like stuffing. However, mashed potatoes are not one of them, unless you add a lot of gravy. However, they are among the top choices for transforming into something different. Making patties out of leftover mashed potatoes and cooking them in a pan is one of the tastiest ways to use up leftovers. Here is how to create them.

Crispy pancakes are a great way to use up leftover mashed potatoes.
If you have a lot of mashed potatoes left after your guests leave, you can use them to make pancakes. Put an egg, cheese, and some chopped fresh chives together, and you can easily shape the mixture into patties. If your mashed potatoes were already seasoned well, you don't need to add salt and pepper.

Coat the patties with flour before putting them in a hot skillet with oil. This will make the pancakes crispy and golden on the outside, and soft and fluffy on the inside. You can have them for lunch with a spoonful of sour cream and a basic green salad, or enjoy them as a snack in the middle of the day. You could also put a fried egg on top and have it for brunch. It's difficult to make a mistake in this situation.
