1/2 cup whole wheat flour
2 cups mashed potatoes
1 egg, beaten
1/2 onion, finely chopped
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 tsp garlic powder
2-3 Tbsp. olive oil
1 tsp dried red hot chili peppers (optional)
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400F. Mix together mashed potatoes, garlic, beaten egg and onion in a medium bowl. Mix in the flour a little at a time. Add salt and pepper (and chilie peppers if using) and stir.
2. Lightly grease a baking sheet. Using an icecream scoop, drop large scoops of the potato mixture onto the baking sheet. Flatten down with a spatula. Brush witha little olive oil. Cook until outside is lightly browned and crisp, about 30 minutes. Serve as a side with turkey or chicken and a green salad.
