Potato Pancakes

I don't know about you, but when I make mashed potatoes, I always have

and ton of left overs - here is a great recipe to use them up for your morning

breakfast. It would be great served along side sausage and eggs.

Potato Pancakes

2 cups mashed potatoes

1 egg, beaten

1/4 cup flour and more for rolling the potatoes

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon onion powder

salt and pepper

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

1/2 cup cheddar cheese 

2 tablespoons fresh chives

1) Combine potatoes, egg, 1/4 cup flour, spices, cheese and chives in a bowl.

2) Heat skillet with oil over medium heat. Roll potatoes into little patties and

place them into a little dusting of flour and place in frying pan and cook on

each side until golden. Serve with sour cream and chives.

Note - I also like to serve mine with applesauce.
