Disclaimer:  I am not a “foodie”.

My husband and I have been on a “real mash potato” kick.  (unlike the instant I usually make)

Last night for dinner, Jim volunteered to peel the potatoes.  (Who I am to stop him?)

Anyway…he made enough potatoes to feed at least 6-8 people.

Usually unlike me, I decided to save the left overs.  (I’m so glad I did)

On a whim, I decided to try my hand at potato pancakes.

I have to admit I’ve lived a sheltered life, I have never had Potato Pancakes.

With the first attempt a flop, I decided to add a little flour and bacon bits with a little more grease

to the pan.  I was so excited at how good it looked that I grabbed one of my “pretty” plates.

I topped it off with some shredded cheese, a little sour cream and added a piece of left over ham.

All I can say is “YUM”.  (and… I wish I had a little more left-overs)

Can’t wait to try it again.

Fun little trivia:  When my daughter was little she’d say, “I only eat the kind from the red box”.
