2013 Kids Recipe Challenge Winning Recipe: 2nd Place!
Michaella, in Newmarket, loves that these patties taste like mashed potatoes but with loads of extra flavour. She especially loves that they have lots of veggies!
The combination of potatoes and beans creates a great vegetarian lunch option that can be made ahead and then warmed up or enjoyed cold. Change up the cheese to Romano or Pecorino for a new twist on taste.
