Give your child some "power" over this recipe and have them help pick out the veggies for these savory waffles! The base of the waffles are shredded sweet potatoes and carrots but the extras are very flexible. We have used sweet corn, bell pepper, and green onion in this recipe but you can add or omit these... some other great veggies that you can include are cubed zucchini, frozen peas, chopped green beans, and fresh herbs!

These yummy sweet potato quiche bites are sweet and savory and a great on-the-go breakfast, snack, or even healthy lunch box component!
"Learn to Love Veggies" Tip
This is a very flexible recipe, we suggest bell pepper & cheese as the quiche filling but ask your child, "What veggie would you like in the quiche?". Great options include broccoli, shredded carrot, spinach, tomato, and more! Giving children some control over what goes in the mini quiche bites will make them more likely to try them when they come out of the oven.

Are you on Team Sweet or Team Savory?!
Take pancakes beyond breakfast and serve them as a snack or a side dish at lunch or dinner. You can mix up the base pancake batter and really add in anything you'd like. For the sweet pancakes, add in fruit, like blueberries or diced strawberries. For a savory pancake, keep the batter as written or add soft herbs like chives or chopped cilantro. You could even add in extra veggies like shredded zucchini or diced bell peppers. Serve sweet pancakes as is or with a drizzle of maple syrup or honey. The savory pancakes are great with avocado or spread with a little cream cheese and made into sandwiches. Try both recipes and come tell us whether you are on team sweet or on team savory!
