Ingredients

2 tablespoons dry bread crumbs
2 medium onions, chopped
1 celery rib, chopped
2 tablespoons chopped green pepper
3 tablespoons canola oil
1 garlic clove, minced
3 cups mashed potatoes (with added milk and butter)
1-1/4 cups cubed part-skim mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

Directions

Grease a 1-1/2-qt. baking dish and sprinkle with bread crumbs; set aside.

In a large skillet, saute the onions, celery and pepper in oil until tender. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Remove from the heat; stir in mashed potatoes and cheese cubes. Transfer mixture to prepared baking dish and sprinkle with shredded cheese.
Bake, uncovered, at 375° for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.

Test Kitchen Tips

It’s usually cheaper to buy cheese in blocks rather than already shredded. Purchase large quantities of cheddar, Monterey Jack and mozzarella, then use a food processor to shred it yourself. Store the shredded cheese in the freezer so you have it when you need it.

Canola oil is high in monounsaturated fat, a type that helps to decrease blood cholesterol levels, and low in saturated fat, which can increase blood cholesterol. Olive oil would also taste great in this recipe and has the same healthy-fat properties.
