Anyhow, I don’t know if potato cakes are your thing or not but since these contain broccoli you’re kind of getting two veggies for the price of one..YeahΒ and completely kid friendly as well.

Hence, what a great way to sneak that broccoli into the kiddos or even the picky adults. Yes, I probably was one of those pain in the butt kids…huh..maybe still am?

As long as it involved some pasta back then I was pretty much good to go. Now you won’t find pasta of any sorts on my menu.

    Ooooh, I don’t like mashed potatoes because I don’t like the smooth texture, but I bet I’d like these a lot more. The “sneaking in veggies” comment is funny – my toddler LOVES vegetables, so we’re always trying to sneak protein and carbs in with his veggies. Maybe I should make broccoli cakes with a little hidden potato. πŸ˜‰
