Potato Croquettes with Bacon and Cheese

Happy Monday!

How was your weekend? Mine was pretty good as per usual, My hubby and I had a chilled Saturday watching movies and playing with the kids. On Sunday I spent the day with my sisters watching reality T.V and eating pizza, my kind of day haha!

Today I want to share with you these amazing potato croquettes with bacon and cheese because they are so easy to make and so tasty. I made these the other day when I had left over mashed potatoes which I did not want to throw out in the garbage. We are trying to save money in this household and that means not wasting food. So I then realized that I can make some delicious potato croquettes, so that’s exactly what I did!

 love how simple this recipe is and it takes no time in preparing and making it. What a perfect way to use leftover mashed potatoes. If you do not have left over mashed potatoes and you are dying (not literally) to make these, then simply make mash potatoes, season it to your taste and liking and then just place it in the refrigerator so it can cool down. Then you are ready to make these potato croquettes with bacon and cheese.

I think anything with bacon and cheese taste so much better!

I simply cooked the bacon, you can either cook it on your stove top or bake it in the oven, which ever you want, it will still crisp up. Then we are ready to place all of the ingredients in a bowl and mix very well, I also added 2 eggs, paprika powder, and cracker crumbs ( I didn’t have breadcrumbs). After mixing all of the ingredients together, using a spoon, mold the mixture into oval shapes and then you are ready to fry it.

How easy right? My family loved these delicious and crunchy and cheesy potato croquettes with bacon and cheese. You can definitely make them for your next party or get together because it will not disappoint.

Oh, I also have a YouTube video on how I make it, so you want to check that out, right? No worries, here’s the video..

Have a great day and I will see you next time.

Yo simplemente cociné el tocino, usted puede cocinar en su estufa o cocer en el horno, como usted desee, estara  crujiente. Entonces estamos listos para colocar todos los ingredientes en un bol y mezclar muy bien, yo también añadi 2 huevos, polvo de pimentón y rallado de galleta (Yo no tenía pan rallado). Después de mezclar todos los ingredientes juntos, usando una cuchara, moldear la mezcla en formas ovaladas y entonces usted está listo para freír.

¿Qué tan fácil ¿no? Mi familia le encantaron estos deliciosas y crujientes y quesosas croquetas de papa con tocino y queso. Definitivamente, usted puede hacer  para su próxima fiesta o reunion porque no le defraudará.

Ah, también tengo un video de YouTube sobre cómo lo hago, así que quiero ver eso, ¿verdad? No se preocupe, aquí está el video ..

Te deseo un bonito dia, y hasta la proxima!
