I buy large bags of potatoes but do not have a wonderful storage situation so we eat from the bag for a couple of weeks and I finish off the bag by making and freezing mash potatoes in two cup serving portions that stack in my freezer. If you have access to an Instant Pot pressure cooker they are really quick to prepare.

Are you still peeling potatoes? This recipe looks good for something different.

LOL Yes, still peeling but also eating with the skin on. I love all the ideas and recipes. Unfortunately the freezer is full with little kumquates so no freezing. Thank you to all that shared and posted both memories and recipes.

Fried potato and onions, you can add peppers. I use the mixed small colored packaged-ones. Also could fry eggs in the pan just before through frying potato mix. Makes it a one pan breakfast, lunch or dinner. To think we used to buy 50# of potatoes once a week when kids were small

I was thinking the same thing as Anniedeb. Grate up (or small dice) a bunch of those potatoes and freeze them in layers on large sheets. Then put into large gallon sized freezer bags. Now you have hash browns ready to go. If you bake them or partially cook them before grating or dicing, cooking them up will be even easier. These can also be used for those cheesy creamy breakfast casseroles, too!
I've never done this, but what about making and freezing mashed potatoes? Can mashed potatoes be frozen?

Just finnished making too large batches of the German Potato Pie. They are in the oven now. That took care of 16 more potatoes. LOL I have a bible study in the morning that is a brunch also so one will go there and the other stays at home.
