10 Leftover Baked Potato Recipes

10 Leftover Baked Potato Recipes

Recipe creator Gloria Gowins says leftover baked potatoes are the secret to the best home fries ever: “When I was working my way through college at a local diner, I learned that they used leftover baked potatoes from the dinner menu that they baked the day before. They always made extra baked potatoes so that they could use them for home fries the next morning. I discovered that this was the ‘secret’ to having flaky, crispy home fries.”

Baked and mashed potatoes replace shredded potatoes for a unique twist on classic latkes. Reviewer Lanny Porter says, “I always make extra potatoes so I have enough to make these for breakfast.”

Baked and mashed potatoes are used to hold these veggie burgers together. Allrecipes Allstar Soup Loving Nicole says these patties hold their shape so well.

Turn last night's leftovers into today's breakfast with these quick and easy chorizo, potato hash, and egg breakfast tacos.

Leftover baked potatoes and prime rib are used as toppings in the ultimate leftovers pizza. Recipe creator Lisa K says, “Tastes like the whole dinner in a beautiful slice!”

Clearly, these twice-baked potatoes were intended for Thanksgiving leftovers, but who's to say you can't use any leftovers? "I used leftover rotisserie chicken, leftover white gravy, and leftover cornbread stuffing," says reviewer Cookie.

Potato skins are a favorite on game day, or any day really. In this recipe, hollowed-out baked potatoes are deep fried, filled with yummy toppings, and baked a second time.

Twice-baked potatoes are probably the most obvious use for leftover baked potatoes — scoop out the baked potato flesh, mix with toppings, place them back in their skins, and bake again. If you've already got baked potatoes, skip the first two steps and pick up from there.

This take on twice-baked potatoes skips the skins altogether and instead cooks the potato, cheese, and bacon mixture in a casserole dish. “Brought this for Sunday dinner after church and it was a hit,” says Allrecipes Allstar Rae.
