These Potato Spinach Patties Put A Delicious Twist On An Old Time Favorite

January 10, 2018 By Vanessa Beaty Leave a Comment

Growing up, my mom used to make potato cakes, which were my favorite. I loved those little things so much and have made them many times over the years for my own family.

Recently I came across this great recipe that puts a new spin on my old favorite. This particular potato patty recipe includes spinach and has a number of other wonderful flavor enhancers. You can imagine my surprise. I thought all potato cakes were alike!

These Potato Spinach Patties Put A Delicious Twist On An Old Time Favorite Now that I’ve made these and tried them, I have to say that they are a better version of my old favorite. Instead of just potato, you get a number of wonderful flavors in this one and it’s the perfect appetizer or you could just have it as an anytime snack.

I do love my appetizer recipes and my family does as well, so I tried serving these instead of my go to favorite, these fried cheese sticks with buttermilk sauce. They loved them and now I have two go to favorites when it comes to choosing an good appetizer.

What I like about these potato spinach patties, aside from the fact that they get my family to eat spinach, is they are pretty easy to make. I’m a sucker for an easy recipe, especially when it turns into something so delicious.

The spinach, garlic and mushrooms are wonderful and these have such a rich taste, not at all what I expected when I was making them. But, I was pleasantly surprised. They really are a delicious appetizer, just like these wonderful avocado fries.

If you’re looking for a new appetizer recipe or you just want something that is wholesome and delicious and guaranteed to please your picky eaters, I recommend this one. I love the flavor and texture and I’m big enough to admit that sometimes those old fashioned recipes can be improved upon. That is definitely the case here and I can’t wait for you to try these!
