I give this recipe out often. It's suitable for any meal, and a terrific use of leftover potatoes. They're great alongside sandwiches or hamburgers. —June Mullins, Livonia, Missouri

Ingredients

  • 2 large eggs, separated
  • 2 cups leftover mashed potatoes
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley or chives
  • 1 teaspoon dried minced onion
  • 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons butter, melted

Directions

  1. In a bowl, beat egg yolks. Add potatoes, Parmesan cheese, parsley, onion and garlic powder; mix well. Beat egg whites until stiff; fold into the potato mixture. Brush eight muffin cups or small ramekins generously with melted butter. Divide potato mixture into cups. Brush remaining butter over potatoes. Bake at 375° for 30-35 minutes or until lightly browned. Serve immediately.
