Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 4 teaspoons butter, divided; 1 cup mashed potatoes; 1/2 cup cubed (or shredded) cooked turkey; 1/2 cup leftover stuffing/dressing (the cubed, bready kind works best); 1/3 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese; 1 egg; salt and pepper; cholula hot sauce; chopped chives; red or green salsa (optional)

Servings: persons

4 teaspoons butter, divided
1 cup mashed potatoes
1/2 cup cubed (or shredded) cooked turkey
1/2 cup leftover stuffing/dressing (the cubed, bready kind works best)
1/3 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1 egg
salt and pepper
cholula hot sauce
chopped chives
red or green salsa (optional)

1
In a small skillet, heat 3 teaspoons butter over medium high heat.
2
Combine mashed potatoes, turkey, stuffing and cheese in a small bowl and season with salt and pepper if needed. Smoosh (technical term) it all together and form it into a somewhat flat circular shape.
3
When the butter is hot, place the leftover mash in the center of the frying pan and flatten it out so that you have good leftover-to-butter contact. Fry for 3-5 minutes or until the mashed potatoes are nice and crispy. Flip. Don't worry if it doesn't stay in one piece, you can pat it back in place.
4
After you flip your mash, hollow out a big enough hole in the center to hold an egg. Drop a dab more butter in the hole then crack the egg into the center. Season the egg with salt and pepper.
5
Cook until the egg is done to your liking. I recommend still runny so that you can have delicious yolk to mush about with the rest of the fry, but this is your breakfast so it's dealer's choice.
6
Slide the whole lot onto a plate. Top generously with Cholula and chopped chives. If you wanted to throw some salsa on top, it would definitely not suck.
