How To Make Potato Smiley At Home Recipes

A couple of weeks ago I found myself with a pile of leftover mashed potato. Continuing in my efforts to be a bit more frugal with food and throw as little as possible away, I decided to have a go at making some homemade potato smiles. My fussy eater loves the packaged variety but I try not to limit them to a treat dinner every so often. I had been meaning to have a go at making my own for a while and now, with a massive bowl of mash to use up, I had the perfect excuse.

I thought these homemade potato smiles might be a bit tricky to make but they were surprisingly easy. I added cheddar cheese to make them a bit more tasty but you can leave this out if you want to keep the fat content very low.

You don’t have to use leftover mash either. You can make a fresh batch but be sure to let it cool before you start adding the other ingredients.

My fussy eater was delighted when I produced these for lunch. She gobbled them down in record time, served with a portion of baked beans. I have to admit I quite enjoyed them myself with a dollop of ketchup!
