Yummy way to use up leftover mashed potatoes!! I decided to make mine for breakfast and scaled it back to 1/4 of the recipe, which did give us 2 good sized pancakes. I didn't need the whole egg, so combined the rest of it with another egg to make scrambled eggs and then served the eggs and pancake with a fresh fruit salad. I could see adding different veggies and even some ham, bacon or sausage to the cakes, yum!! Thanks for sharing the recipe. Made for Please Review My Recipe Tag Game.

I made this on 2/17/12 as part of mine and my SO's dinner.Since I didn't have any of the fresh ingredients on hand,dried was used. Other than that,the recipe was made as it was written. Through no fault of the recipe, the pancakes stuck a bit to the pan. Even though they stuck some ,they still tasted pretty good. if I make these again, I think I'm going to try using a higher heat to see if that will help with the sticking problem.
