Don't throw it away: how to use leftover mashed potatoes
Mashed potatoes taste best when hot. If a small amount is left over for the next day, the dish does not cause much of a stir and, very often, it is simply thrown away. But the best option is to use the mashed potatoes for another delicious dish.
