1 (24 ounce) package Simply Potatoes Traditional Mashed Potatoes
2 cups cooked shrimp, chopped
3 egg whites, beaten until foamy
1/2 cup green onion, minced
1/4 cup red bell pepper, minced
salt & freshly ground black pepper, as desired
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup seafood cocktail sauce
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
1 garlic clove, minced
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 (5 ounce) package baby spinach leaves

1
Combine the mashed potatoes with the shrimp, egg whites, green onions and red bell pepper, blending well. Season as desired with salt and black pepper; reserve.
2
To make Spicy Aioli, blend mayonnaise, cocktail sauce, white wine vinegar and garlic; reserve in refrigerator.
3
Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Spoon about 1/2 cup of the potato mixture into the skillet to form each cake. (Several may be cooked at once, depending upon the size of the skillet - do not crowd.) Cook for 3-5 minutes, or until golden brown, then turn to brown the other side. Remove to several thicknesses of paper towels, keeping warm in a 250 degree oven. Continue until all cakes are cooked.
4
Serve over baby spinach leaves with Spicy Aioli. Yield: 4 to 5 main dish servings. May also be used as appetizers (I usually make them into smaller cakes for appetizers.) If used as an appetizer, this recipe makes about 8 to 10 appetizer servings.

Note - I have also used leftover cooked salmon, flaked and chopped, for the shrimp in this incredible dish - equally tasty.
