Have done, made into cakes with herbs etc added. Fry up from frozen, no problems.

My eldery mum buys the frozen mashed spuds (pams), They come in a pellet form and she just takes out 10 pellets, microwaves and all good. At first I thought oh yuk. Then I brought a bag and made up a lot of little sheperds pies and smoked fish piesand put in freezer and the mashed spuds tastes all good.

May be a silly question as I haven't used the frozen mashed potatoes, but did you cook them before you put them on the shepherds/fish pies or did you freeze the pies and then put the frozen spuds on top when you where heating them up!

Make the pies, add the cooked mashed spuds, cheese and then freeze them.

I have made stews and mince etc, added mashed spuds (just made) to the top and froozen. Just before putting in the oven, I have added grated cheese. No problems at all. So go for it :)

Yes I use these also, and that brand is the best. I don't eat potatoes, but I get these for hubby and he loves them. I also just put a friend onto them, whose hubby has had cancer of the mouth and can only eat sloppy foods, she was so grateful as it is not something she would normally buy.
