Potato Cakes

This is a really yummy way to get rid of those leftover mashed potatoes! Quick and filling, it's a favorite around our house.

You'll need:

Leftover mashed potatoes 

2 T. butter

Velveeta cheese

Salt

Pepper

Toss the butter in a cast iron skillet and melt.

Start by making a ball of mashed potatoes in your hand, then flatten it and gently drop into the hot skillet.

 Add a little salt and pepper and then flip in order to brown it on the other side.

Serve piping hot with a thin slice of Velveeta cheese on top. You can even set the cheese on the cakes while they are in the skillet, just don't flip them over.

Enjoy!
