Cailiflower and Sweet Potato Cakes

Cauliflower & Sweet Potato Cakes

So here it is, my very first recipe on BiaMaith.ie. I am not a chef but as a mum of three very young kids and a hungry husband, I often feel like I spend half my life wondering what to make for dinner. This week cauliflower & sweet potatoes were on offer in one of the supermarkets so I stocked up and decided I would experiment with other ingredients I had at home. This dish is what I came up with. I love trying out different spices and try to feed my family as healthily as possible, so these are what I came up with. We all really enjoyed them and they were so cheap to make. I’ll definitely give these a go again and I think they’d be really nice with a mint and yoghurt dip or a garlic mayo in a pitta bread with salad.

ENSURE THE SPICES YOU USE ARE GLUTEN FREE IF THIS IS IMPORTANT TO YOU

    Super duper way to get the kids to eat veggies they don’t normally touch. I say they are for the adults only and somehow this makes them want them even more 🙂
