Leftover mashed potatoes are rarely as creamy or as moist as they are on the day they’re made. That’s why, when you’re faced with a big bowl of leftover spuds, you shouldn’t just reheat them ― you should reimagine them in different forms.
We’re talking about using mashed potatoes as a stepping stone to other great meals like croquettes, puffs and even waffles. (Yes, you can absolutely do waffle mashed potatoes.)
Next time you find yourself faced with more leftover mashed potatoes than you know what to do with, consider one of these outside-the-box ideas.
