Bubble and Squeak is a traditional British dish made with leftover vegetables, usually potatoes and cabbage, mixed together and fried until crispy. This Americanized version adds bacon for extra flavor and a touch of maple syrup for sweetness.

2. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and melt the butter.
3. Add the potato mixture to the skillet, pressing it down with a spatula to form a pancake.
4. Cook for 10-15 minutes, flipping once, until the bottom is browned and crispy.
5. Serve hot with a side of eggs or your favorite breakfast meat.
