Zucchini and sweet potato slice

by Katrina - The Organised Housewife March 31, 2016June 10, 2020

I saw this Zucchini and Sweet Potato Slice recipe pop up on taste.com.au and really wanted to try it. I love making zucchini slice and use my own recipe often for lunches, adding in whatever vegetables I have in the fridge at the time, I’ve made it at times with pumpkin, but never sweet potato.

This zucchini and sweet potato slice was a really lovely light meal, perfect for those very hot days to serve cold with salad.

I changed the recipe ever so slightly, I used 6 eggs (I didn’t want to waste 2 egg yolks, I know it’s probably healthier with less yolks) and added in some bacon as I had some that needed using up in the fridge. After trying the recipe it was slightly bland, I feel it needed seasoning, so will add salt and pepper and extra garlic next time.  I will also add a handful of feta just a bit of needed cheesy zing.

Fry onion and bacon until soft and browned.

We love your zucchini slice at our place, so I think we might have to try this variation.

Where do I get optional? What’s the best way to thinly to thinly slice it?

Reply
Kat April 4, 2016 - 7:42 AM

For more flavour I often use a sharp natural yoghurt instead of ricotta, sour cream or milk.

Katrina - The Organised Housewife April 5, 2016 - 10:24 AM

reat idea, that would also be a really healthy option.

My daughter makes these cookies for us and we all My daughter makes these cookies for us and we all love them so. I LOVE ROCKY ROAD, and these have all those yummy flavours in a cookie! They are a perfect treat in the afternoon when I sit down with a cuppa, I do love the crunch of the nuts and gooeyness of the marshmallow. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The cookies freeze really well for eating later, but I must admit we tend to polish off the batch pretty quickly and they very rarely make it to the freezer in our home. I am planning on doing a big baking day soon to stock my freezer with snacks, these cookies would make a lovely once in a while, lunchbox treat if your child attends a school that allows nuts 🥜 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The recipe is on my blog, or just swipe up in my stories! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
