Turkey Makeover, part 3


Now we really didn't just have these, this was a couple days ago. To me, it was a homerun:

"Loaded" Potato Pancakes

1 cup finely chopped turkey
2 strips cooked bacon, crumbled
2 scallions, finely diced
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 envelope of instant potatoes, (one that makes 4 servings),
prepared according to package
1 egg yolk
1/2 cup bread crumbs, plus more for coating
S&P
Veg Oil

Combine the turkey, bacon, scallions, egg, cheese, S&P and 1/2 cup bread crumbs into the prepared potatoes. Eat an iron skillet with enough veg oil to coat the bottom completely. Fashion scoops of potatoes into little patties, coat in bread crumb and fry 2-4 minutes per side. Place on paper towel to drain. Serve with sour cream.

We ate these and a salad--a full meal. And, this made approximately15 patties.

So creative! I just made soup and froze the rest.
