Sweet Potato Shepherd’s Pie (V,GF)

Sweet Potato Shepherd's Pie makes a fantastic healthy dinner

Change my last name and it wouldn’t matter, it would still be my favorite food! To this day it’s a dinner that makes me happy.

But that’s the beauty of the Shepherd’s Pie, you can put whatever vegetables you like in it.

Sweet Potato Quinoa Kale Cakes (V,GF)

by Kelli & Brad

This recipe combines our favorite potato with the wonders of quinoa – one of the few plant versions of a complete protein – and kale – the very definition of a superfood with so much iron, calcium, omega-3s, and vitamins A and C, you’re practically eating a multivitamin!
