I give this recipe out often. It's suitable for any meal, so it's a great use of left-over potatoes. From experience, I can recommend Potato Puffs to mothers of young children—when our four youngsters were growing up, I would often fix these to go with their sandwiches. They're good alongside hamburger and a salad, too. My husband and I have lived on the same farm ever since we were married. We run cattle and put up hay.

A light potato flavor. Good seasonings. Slightly dry, but will make again.

I made these potatoes as a side for some rosemary chicken. They turned out wonderful and little did I know, but I made a food my husband loved during a trip to Germany. Bonus points.

12/24/208 - I had high expectations for this recipe but it turned out very dry and I'm not sure why. Maybe the egg whites? The flavor was good though so I may try the recipe again.
