Loaded Potato Cakes

This recipe was developed out of a necessity to use up leftover mashed potatoes that were just sitting in the refrigerator, taking up space and mocking me every time I looked at them. Okay, maybe they were not really mocking me, but it sure felt like it. Reheated potatoes are not what I believe anyone would call a delicious side dish, however, you also don’t want to be wasteful and throw them away. So what do you do?
