List of Ingredients
Instant mashed potatoes (made from 1 full packet follow directions on the box)
** You can obviously use homemade mashed potatoes too. That will probably taste even better. I don�t usually have any though, because I always just eat every last scrap of potatoes I make. But, FYI, 1 packet of instant flakes makes about 3-4 cups mashed potatoes, so if you�re using homemade stuff, adjust your other ingredient measurements accordingly.
2/3 cup Colby Jack cheese, grated
1 1/2 cups Panko breadcrumbs
1 large egg
2 tbsp chives, chopped
Recipe
In a large bowl, mix all ingredients until everything is uniformly incorporated.
Using your hands, scoop out generous portions of the potato mixture, and shape it into patties.
** These can be as big as you want. My patties were about 1 inch thick and 2 inches across.
Spray a large pan/skillet with Pam and set it on the stove over medium/high heat.
Cook mashed potato patties 3-4 at a time, about 1-2 minutes on each side.
** If you�re using a pan/skillet with a cover, put the lid on when you�re cooking each side. This will trap the heat and cook the patties all the way around, even on the edges.
Serve warm, with sour cream and bacon bits
