Mashed Potato Quesadilla

Followed the steps how it said, not going to lie i was a bit scared at first but once i tried it wow! I didn’t think it’d taste so good! I added a ranch dip on the side and it was just what this needed next time i will definitely be adding shredded chicken as well for some protein

you dont need to butter the tortilla if you have a nonstick pan

made these today, pretty easy & really tasty...carb lovers dream...the first tortilla slipped a little when I tried to flip it, so learned to be more careful! I put sour cream in the potates as well as on the top w/salsa...and used hickory smoked bacon and taco blend cheese...very good, will make again...served with Spicy Honey Mustard Glazed Ribs (this site)...nice combo!

What a great way to use up those leftover mashed potatoes! Skipped the onion and used PAM instead of butter.

oooooooooo....very, very good recipe! YUM! I loved it! great idea to use up leftover potatoes! My leftovers were the bulk of insides from baking red potatoes for tater'skins....so there was no milk or butter in them, just the potato, I mixed that with a tsp of ready made bacon crumbles and chopped chives...spread it out on a 6 inch LOW-FAT tortilla and quickly fried it without oil, butter or cooking spray, you get a nice crunchie texture on the tortilla and hardly any fat! I served with salsa....I am definitely going to be making these on a regular basis! Thanks MrsB for a great idea!

WOW these were so gooood. LOL I am not sure why I liked them so much but they were addictive. I did use leftover loaded baby reds from this site. I might make mashed potatoes just to use this recipe!!! Thanks.

First off, I already use 1% milk, low-fat margarine and low-fat/no-fat cheese for nearly everything, so even with the bacon, these simply just weren't that fattening. I was a bit unsure of the mashed potato concept, but they were surprisingly good. I felt they were a 4.5 and knocked it down to the 4 just because they were a bit of a hassle. (I've never found heat n' serve bacon to really save a lot of time and don't have pre-made potatoes around. So certainly not a 15-min prep and also the potatoes a bit of a hassle to spread.) I wondered if I could get away with not frying them, but that holds them together, and also makes them slice into nice-looking wedges that are easy to handle. I used 10" tortillas and they only filled half that many and seemed like they'd only fill 2/3 of the 8" ones. (Not sure how anyone had left-over filling.) I agree with quasinaught that they taste *nothing* like perogies, which in my case is a good thing because I dislike them.

I made these. I want actually a 4.5 stars, couldn't give it a total 5 star for sort of being messy. I did follow the recipe to a T. And all the steps were really really simple. The flavor was great from what my kids tell me. Son didn't like the onions but oh well. My other 3 children gobbled them up. The only part I found was it was hard to spread the potatoes on the tortillas. I think I would do what I do with refried beans for the next go around, because I will make them again, is put the potatoes in a ziploc baggie, snip the corner and pipe them out on the tortilla for easy coverage. But all in all, very simple recipe. Get way to use leftover mashed taters.
