Healthy Sweet Potato Zucchini Tots
I’m pretty sure I haven’t been able to get Gracie to eat Zucchini in almost a year! She use to really like it, but over the past year or so even though I continuously dish it up she says it’s ‘disgusting’. So this week I started to have a think of ways that I could be more creative with sneaking zucchini in via these Sweet Potato Zucchini Tots which are combined them with things she’s already enjoys eating.
One of my go to meals that always goes down a treat with hidden zucchini is my Slow cooked Spaghetti Bolognese or my zucchini fritters.
These ‘tots’ are a little nutritional powerhouse in themselves with Quinoa and Flaxseed Meal, they’re also Dairy, Gluten, Soy & Egg-free.
