OOh, they make a _wonderful_ additive to soups!
One of my fondest childhood memories was that lentil soup with mashed
potatoes. :-) I think I was maybe 4.....

Alternately, add some eggs, beat them well and make potato pancakes. A
sprinkling of bacon bits and off you go!

Is this a trick question? Heat the mashed potatoes up and
eat them with steak, turkey, whatever? No need for a special
recipe in that situation.

Yum - what Michael said - plus they would make a good topping for a
shepherd's or cottage pie:

* Exported from MasterCook *

Cottage or Shepherd's Pie

1 pound ground beef
1 onion -- chopped
1 cup mushrooms -- sliced
2 cups mixed vegetables, frozen, or chopped fresh
Italian seasoning
salt and pepper to taste
gravy
2 cups mashed potatoes

Sauté the meat, breaking it apart as you do. Leave it sort of pinkish,
since you don't want it overcooked. Drain off any excess fat and add the
onion. Sauté until the onions are translucent, then add mushrooms,
vegetables and seasonings; sauté a minute or two longer. Mix in the gravy
and put into a baking dish.

Cover with mashed potatoes and put into a 350ºF. oven for about 45 minutes,
until the potatoes are beginning to brown and get crispy around the edges.
Remove from the oven, make a well in the center and add a gob of butter
(optional). Serve hot.

NOTES : Remember: It's cottage pie if made from beef and shepherd's pie if
made from lamb!!

Shepards Pie -- Basic method: Brown some ground beef along with
chopped onions in a frying pan; spread beef 'n onion mix into the
bottom of an oven proof casserole; spread mashed taters on top; bake
at 325F for a half hour or so or until the taters are lighlty browned
on top. Many variations are possible using different or additional
veggies and meat.

Dora,

Why not make a few fish cakes with some cooked kippers, simply coat in
beaten egg and breadcrumbs and pan fry for a few minutes?

Yum
