I made buffalo chicken potato skins for dinner.
What's your favorite way to use up the filling? Don't suggest mashed potatoes, DH hates them.
I could do german potato salad....but what else?!
-
Uuummm... what are these leftover potato parts you speak of??
Hmmm... If it were me I would just eat them with a spoon. But to actually use them in a recipe...? Could you make some sort of casserole and mix the potatoes with some butter/cheese/sour cream and put on top when you bake it to make some sort of crust? That's pretty similar to mashed potatoes though
-
Shepherd's pie? Or is that too mashed potato-esque?
-
I would of eaten them already! Although those buffalo chicken potato skins sound delish!!!!
-
Pierogis?
-
Latkes? Like a potato pancake, I think
-
Hash browns?
-
Warm potato salad?
-
@grizz, too mashed potato-y for him, I think. He's just got this weird thing about pureed food. And if i want mashed potatoes, i want BAD mashed potatoes
I'm just not sure what to do with them all! There are so many! and they're already cooked, otherwise i would've shredded them
-
Can you make fish cakes with them?
-
@blackbird: Have a bunch of people over for dinner/grilling and make mashed potatoes so they get eaten!
-
Home fries? Can you dice them then sauté them?
-
@swurlygurl, gah no, we just had a bunch of people over last week!
@cheert16, they'd just crumble
-
I don't have a good recipe but my best friend's mom makes the BEST Japanese potato salad. I am sure we can google it.
-
potato patty fritters?
-
Ooh, how about potato and bacon savory cupcakes?

-
@Cherrybee: yes, fish cakes!
-
Could you make gnocchi?
-
@kimberlybee, whoa, what?! That sounds awesome. Not great for eating healthy, though, heh.
@cheert16....I could!!!!
What are fish cakes?!?!
-
@blackbird: Yes! I got one!
What about baked potato soup?
-
OMG you guys are making me hungry! This turkey sandwich is so boring
-
I was taking this post as a personal challenge to find something you could make with them!!
-
hahaha! I love it, thank you!
I found some fish cake recipes that look really good. i think i can bake them (a la a Skinnytaste potato pancake recipe)
I just don't eat a lot of potatoes in general so it's hard to think of what would be good (that isn't battered and deep fried). And i don't necessarily want to make mashed potatoes just to have a recipe on hand. Although now I think i could make a ground turkey shepherd's pie just for me to nom on all week for lunch
-
a friend of mine makes a baked potato soup that is amazing. i think its from this recipe? http://www.eatingwell.com/recipes/loaded_baked_potato_soup.html
you could do something similar -
@blackbird: Um, yeah, I am going to need some potato meals STAT - my lunch is super boring today too
-
Seriously. I already crave carbs and now I just want potatoes!
-
@silva, I thought about soup, too....but again, i like a bunch of unhealthy shit in it
@swurlygurl, you can come share my hoard of cooked taters
-
I have this same problem! We ended up just eating some
Of it with butter , salt and pepper. -
These potato recipes sound delicious!!!
-
@blackbird: What are fish cakes???? Whaaaat?? You're missing out! Salmon fish cakes with a hollandaise sauce, with some gently wilted spinach, topped with parmesan shavings, black pepper and a teeny squeeze of lemon juice. Yum!
-
@cherrybee, well i made some salmon cakes with leftover salmon a couple week sago. But it was just salmon and a little egg+bread crumb. It was VERY salmon-y tasting but E liked them.
I found a fish cake recipe with potato, though, and cod, which i'm going to try Sunday! But if you have a better recipe, send it my way!
-
i would probably make a hash with it...fry up some ham/bacon/leftover pork, add onion and garlic, chunk up the potatoes (fine if they crumble) add some greens if you are so inclined and top with a fried egg.
-
@dagret, that sounds like a good/quick easy dinner idea, too!
-
@blackbird: Yep! a great use of leftovers all around!
-
@blackbird: You could bake the innards with cheese and jalapeno (or some other good stuff).
-
@blackbird: I mean.....thats what makes it good. A little potato with my sour cream.
-
i know, i know, i know.
-
My mom used to just throw leftover potatoes in a frying pan with some cheese and fry it up. So good!
-
I think all of my suggestions have been mentioned, but I'd vote for baked potato soup or fish cakes.
