Do Ahead Hash Brown Potato Patties

For a while I was buying pre-made hashbrown patties at Trader Joe's for something Taylor could grab and throw in the toaster oven when she needed something quick. I wanted to make them at home though, because I am just one of those people that likes to know everything that is being served in my house. She is watching her calories like I am, so I decided to make them from scratch ahead of time. They are better than the pre-packaged kind, affordable to make, healthier and just as accessible.
