Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 425°.

Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Coat pan with cooking spray.

Add green onions to pan, and cook 2 minutes or until tender, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat.

Place mashed potatoes in a medium bowl.

Stir in onions, cheese, salt, pepper, and bacon. Divide potato mixture into 6 equal portions, shaping each into a 1/2-inch-thick patty. Place panko in a shallow dish. Dredge patties in panko.

Place patties on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray.

Bake at 425° for 12 minutes. Carefully turn patties over; bake an additional 12 minutes or until golden.
