So here it is
1. Potatoes: Combine leftover mashed potatoes with chopped onion and shredded cheese, then bake. This tastes yummy. You can also form balls of leftover mashed potatoes around cubes of cheese. Then deep fry them.

4. Bread crusts: Cut into squares and fry or dry roast them. You can use them in soups as croutons. You can give it to your dog or even feed the birds. You can make a sweet dish out of it using jams and ice creams.
