Scale
Ingredients
- 3 cups mashed potatoes
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup diced green onion
- 1/4 cup real bacon bits
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
Toppings:
- sour cream or plain Greek yogurt
- extra diced green onion
- extra real bacon bits
Instructions
- Preheat skillet or griddle to medium heat. Place all the ingredients in a medium bowl, stir to combine.
- Spray skillet with non-stick cooking spray. Taking heaping spoonfuls of the potato mixture at a time (about 1/4 cup), place each spoonful on the skillet and smash down so it is flat. Cook one one side until it is golden brown, about 3 minutes. Flip over and cook on the other side until golden, approximately an additional 2-3 minutes. Continue until all the mixture is gone.
- Remove from the skillet. Serve topped with sour cream or plain Greek yogurt and extra chopped green onion and real bacon bits. Add extra salt and pepper, if desired.
