Slimming Eats Cheesy Sweet Potato and Zucchini Bites - gluten free, vegetarian, Slimming Eats and Weight Watchers friendly

Cheesy Sweet Potato and Zucchini Bites which are great for a light lunch or snack. I often make finger food things like this that are Slimming Eats friendly, as they are great for kids and are a great way to sneak in some hidden veg that they wouldn’t normally eat.

I paired these up with my Homemade Pizza Sauce, but they would be just as good as side dish to a main meal, they are also really great served alongside some soup instead of bread.

They are super easy to make, just some grated sweet potato, zucchini, seasoning, cheddar and egg, all mixed together and formed into patties and then baked in the oven till golden. It's hard to not eat one before they even reach the plate, as they smell so good when they come out of the oven.

As well as being vegetarian friendly, these Cheesy Sweet Potato and Zucchini Bites are also gluten free.
