What to Make With Leftover Potatoes

Practical ideas for using cooked potatoes in a new meal.

Make them crisp again

Cut cooked potatoes into smaller pieces and brown them in a lightly oiled hot pan. Serve them with eggs, a salad or another cooked vegetable.

Turn them into tacos or wraps

Use potato as a filling with cheese, beans, salsa or vegetables. Crispy Potato Tacos shows one simple direction.

Use them in soup

Cooked potatoes can add body and texture to a soup. Creamy Potato Soup is another option when you have potatoes to use up.

Handle leftovers safely

Refrigerate cooked potatoes promptly in a covered container and reheat them thoroughly before serving. Follow the storage guidance appropriate to your kitchen and local food-safety advice.
