I’ve heard people say, “Don’t mess with a good thing.” Others say, “You can’t re-invent the wheel.” But I don’t think that rule applies to the Breakfast Potato.

So I thought I’d start with an Idaho russet potato, baked of course! Add grated onion, cheese, spinach and seasonings to make little patties of goodness.
I found that if you wilt the spinach a bit, you don’t need any additional moisture. Rice the potato, add the other ingredients and press into patties.
Spray the patties lightly with vegetable oil. Bake at 375 degrees until set and golden brown (about 20 minutes). Drain on a paper towel.
Tip: Bake potato the night before and assemble patties.
- 1 large baked Idaho Russet Potato, riced or mashed
- ⅓ cup minced fresh onion
- ¼ cup shredded cheddar cheese
- ⅓ cup chopped spinach
- ½ teaspoon garlic salt
- fresh ground black pepper to taste
- cooking spray
- Mix potato, onion, cheese and seasoning together. Wilt spinach in a small amount of boiling water. Drain. Add spinach to potato mixture.
- Use your hands to form half dollar sized patties.
- Arrange patties on a baking sheet and lightly spray with cooking spray oil. flip and spray other side.
- Bake at 375 degrees until set and golden brown (about 20 minutes).
- Drain any excess grease on a paper towel.
