Mashed potato is a neglected ingredient in baking - eg Mrs Beeton's

I've made some very nice potato soufflés before now and this is one recipe I can recommend as being very reliable.
Leek, Potato and Cheese Soufflé | Recipes | Delia Online It says it serves 2 but if you add some vegetable side dishes like baked onions, tomatoes or peppers etc. it goes much further.

PS if you don't have a soufflé dish a well buttered deep cake tin will do at a pinch.

There is also this Delia recipe which I have had great success with, it sounds unpleasant on the page but is delicious to eat and there is a video of how to make them too. Chocolate 'Surprise' Cup Cakes | Recipes | Delia Online

Hi,

boil them with turnip/parsnip/carrot, mash, portion and freeze.

+1 to this (if you have room in your freezer).
I always have a stock of mashed potatoes in mine.

Potatas  bravas  ! Yum 😋 really easy .can add cheese to top and put other veg onion and peppers if wanted. 

Greek Briam if you like courgettes. Both freeze well if you make a batch and freeze.
most potato recipes would freeze so can always make extras and throw in freezer.

Have you ever tried making filled potato skins? My family calls them 'cheesy potatoes' and they're my favourite thing about moving into autumn/winter

You just need to bake the potatoes, then cut them in half and scoop out the middle. Mash it up with some butter and cheese (we add onions, but you can add anything you want really). Then put the mash back in the skins and bake for 20-30 mins until golden.

They're so delicious, especially if you have a bit of Branston or homemade chutney.

Butter pie just butter, spuds and onions baked in pastry. Lancashire Recipes - Butter Pie | Great British Life
Or a simple cheese & potato pie Potato Pie Recipe - Food.com lovely with baked beans

Oh goodness my late Gran used to make this some 50 odd years ago bless her - my late Mum used to think Gran was hard up as not putting meat in.  I loved it!!!  So guess what's on my weekend menu.

Not sure if this idea helps I make this with left over ham after Xmas  https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/221004/cheesy-scalloped-potatoes-with-ham/
It's a wee bit more fussy than mine which is basically blanched spuds cheese sauce and cubes a ham layed, sauted onion.....don't add peas just serve with veg like broccoli

Make Hasselback potatoes, no matter their size. You can even stuff the slots with cheese. Yummm.

Serve them with veggie chilli or whatnot.
