Ingredients

  • 24 oz package refrigerated mashed potatoes (such as Simply Potatoes – I used the “Country Style”)
  • 1 ½ cups panko crumbs
  • ¾ cup reduced fat shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 tablespoon real bacon pieces such as Hormel, often found in the salad toppings section of the grocery store
  • 2 tablespoon chopped green onions

Instructions

  • Combine all the ingredients except cooking spray in a large bowl. Shape potato mixture into 16 (2 inch) cakes.
  • Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add half of potato cakes to pan (or however many fit at once, you’ll need to work in batches). Cook 2 minutes on each side until golden brown. Repeat procedure with remaining potato cakes.
