Grandma's Potato Dumplings
Don’t be surprised if you make too many mashed potatoes on purpose. Day-old rolls and leftover spuds are scrumptious the second time around, turned into buttery potato dumplings.Wendy Stenman

1/2 cup leftover mashed potatoes
1 egg, lightly beaten
Dash ground nutmeg

1/4 cup butter, cubed
Directions
Tear rolls into 1/2-in. pieces; place in a 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in.

In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Add bread; cook and

Carefully add dumplings. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 8-10
