If there’s one thing I love, it’s preparing a big Sunday dinner for friends and family.
The only downside? I cook up a feast and always end up with a heaping pile of leftovers. A roast is easy, you can just make it into sandwiches like these delicious brisket sliders, and veggies taste great reheated.
The problem for me is always mashed potatoes. I love them hot and covered in butter, but they just aren’t quite the same the next day.
Fortunately, I recently learned that there’s an easy recipe to give them a second life, one that will make you wish you’d made even more to begin with!
They’re called Leftover Mashed Potato Bombs, and they’re a tasty and super-efficient way to convert your Sunday leftovers into a crispy, delicious appetizer that your friends will clamor for.
Best of all, you only need a few simple ingredients to pull them together! Print out the recipe below to whip up a batch of your very own!
