Potato Puffs

These cute little guys are the perfect little bite, super yummy and thoroughly addicting!  Go ahead and double this recipe because they will seriously fly off the plate.  My husband and 4 year old couldn't get enough of these guys.  We all agreed that we could eat a lot of them!

Potato Puffs
2 large baking potatoes
1 egg
1/4 cup ham, chopped
2 scallions, chopped
handful shredded cheese of your choice (I used cheddar)
salt and pepper to taste

bake potatoes in oven until fork tender, about 45 minutes.  You can also "bake" them in the microwave using your Baked Potato setting if you don't have 45 minutes.  Scoop out the potato from the skins and discard skins (or save them and make Potato Skins!)

Add one egg to the potato and mix thoroughly.  Add remaining ingredients and stir to combine.  Grease mini muffin cups with Nonstick Cooking Spray, and scoop about a tablespoon of mixture into each cup. Sprinkle a little bit of more cheese onto each bite.  Bake at 350 degrees until nicely puffed, about 15-20 minutes.  Makes about 12-15 puffs.
