Description

Ingredients

• butter, for greasing pan
• 6 cups leftover mashed potatoes (this was from about 5 pounds of potatoes)
• 3-4 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
• 6 lasgana noodles, boiled (I used whole wheat)
• 4 strips of bacon cooked and crumbled (optional)
• sour cream/Greek yogurt for serving

Directions

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Generously butter a 9x13 pan. Spread 2 cups of mashed potatoes on the bottom pan. Sprinkle with 1 cup of cheese. Place 3 noodles over the layer of cheese. Repear layers. For the final layer, spread the remaining potatoes over the last layer of noodles. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese (use anywhere from 1-2 cups on this final layer), bacon (if using) and then cover with foil.
• Bake for 40 minutes and then remove foil. Bake for another 20 minutes, until cheese is browned.
• Allow to cool before slicing.
• Serve as is, or with caramelized onions and a dollop of Greek yogurt or sour cream.
