Potatoes are a veggie that can be utilized in so many different ways. Pasta? Forget about it. I prefer my carbs and starch from root veggies, thank you.<\/p>\n<p>Leftover mashed potatoes can be just lovely on their own the next day but sometimes they need a little extra love and attention.<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes you just want something a little different with your leftovers.<\/p>\n<p>I took some leftover mash that we had, added a few extra ingredients, baked it for about 20 minutes and got an entirely new dish out of some basic leftovers.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Andrea&#8217;s Baked Mashed Potatoes<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Leftover Mashed Potatoes<\/li>\n<li>5 Green Onions, chopped<\/li>\n<li>1\/2C Greek Yogurt<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Preheat oven to 400.
