Spinach and Sweet Potato Patties:
1 large sweet potato (about a pound)
1 TBS Green onions
1/4 cup of fresh baby Spinach
1 tsp Cilantro
1/4 tsp Cumin
1/2 tsp Sea Salt
1 Egg
1/4 cup fine cornmeal
Prick potato with fork. Microwave for 8 minutes.
Let rest until cool. Cut open and scoop out interior into bowl.
Mix together with cilantro, cumin, sea salt and egg. (I'm sure you could use egg whites as well if you wanted to. It's mainly a binder)
Mix in the corn meal and ripped or chopped baby spinach.
Heat a pan and spray with cooking spray. Take 1 to 2 tablespoon scoops, place on pan and flatten slightly with your hand.
Cook until golden/dark brown on each side. Serve with garlic yogurt sauce. Delish!
