Answers:
You received a lot of great answers from potato pancakes to potato soup!. I have made the suggestion you received where you mash the potatoes and mix in crisp crumbled bacon, green onions, sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese and it is excellent!! In fact, you can make that a day ahead, refrigerate it to meld the flavors, and heat it up the next day at 350o for about 40 minutes or until it starts to bubble!.

You can make a Frittata out of your potatoes too - which is just sauteed onions, bell peppers, mushrooms, meat of your choice - in bite-sized pieces, shredded cheese and beaten eggs added at the end!. Start by sauteeing your cubed potatoes until they are a little brown on the sides - set aside!. Then saute the onions and bell peppers!. Then add your left-over meat (can be chicken, beef, hot dogs, Kielbasa, ham - whatever) cut into bite-sized pieces to warm up add in your potatoes and then move everything over in the skillet and add the beaten eggs in that open corner!. Once the egg starts setting up, mix it into everything else and once you've mixed it all together and the potatoes are almost totally set, add your shredded cheddar and give it a quick mix!.

If you make soup with your potatoes, remember you can start by sauteeing some onions, carrots and celery and adding it to some chicken broth!. Cook them until tender!. Then add half of your potatoes and heat them up!. Then mash those potatoes!. Then add the rest of your potatoes and some fried crisp bacon and a little cream!. The cream will give it that great mouth-feel without all the fat of a totally cream-based soup!. You can add some diced green onions to it as well just before serving!.

And, keep in mind, you can also freeze those cooked potatoes - on a cookie sheet to start and then into a zip lock bag once frozen - so you can haul them out and use them individually as needed!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

TASTY TORTILLA

You can use more or less any vegetables in tortilla, but this basic recipe is very satisfying and doesn't need anything more than a tomato salad and some bread to complete the meal!.

3 large potatoes, peeled and diced (you can use leftover boiled potatoes), 1 large onion, chopped, 8 eggs, beaten, a little olive oil!.


Serves 4: Cook the onion in the oil until soft!. If using raw potato, cook this with the onion, turning occasionally until cooked through!. If using leftovers, they just need to brown and heat through!. Pour in the seasoned eggs and cook until the underside is brown and the tortilla is becoming firm!. If you're feeling brave, slide the tortilla on to a large plate, then flip it back into the pan, top down, to finish cooking!. Otherwise, finish cooking the top under a hot grill!. Good served hot, or left to cool and served in thick slices!.
