Stuffed Mashed Potato Nests: Crispy, Creamy, and Utterly Addictive

Use Russet Potatoes: Their starch content makes them ideal for shaping and crisping.
Don’t Skip the Egg: It helps hold the nests together—no crumbling allowed.
Add Cheese for Extra Flavor: It also acts as a secondary binder.
Double Up: Add a layer of filling, then more mashed potatoes on top for stuffed potato “pies.”
Prep in Advance: Make the nests a day ahead and reheat in the oven to keep the crisp factor.
