Kumara (sweet potato) Hashbrowns
Kumara (sweet potato) hashbrowns are a great healthy alternative when you want to avoid bread or other high refined carbohydrates like white rice and pasta etc. These are great added to a salad for lunch or as a toast alternative at breakfast time - top with a few eggs and some spinach - delish. Also fantastic as a lunchbox addition for the kids too.
