Rockin' Poppin' Potato Pancakes
By Rebecca K., Jennifer E. and Dawn L. from Joseph D'Aquinni West Road Intermediate, Pleasant Valley, New York .
Description
This side dish combines sweetness, crunchiness and a mouthful of rich yet fresh flavors. The exterior of the pancake is crisp and golden leading into the soft warm and fulfilling interior. The dipping sauce is cool and rich with flavor - only to be topped by a fresh and clean strawberry garnish that cleanses and refreshes the palate. Having the dipping sauce and bright red strawberry make this a fun dish for children to dig into. They will never know they are getting so many vitamins from this mixture of mostly pumpkin and sweet potato.
