Sweet potato and red bean patties

10th December 2014 by Haleo Leave a Comment

Sweet potatoes have become my new bff! Gone is the misconception that these guys are not good for you; remember these root vegetables are a wonderful source of slow releasing energy (due to their fibre and starch) and they also provide good doses of beta-carotene, vitamin C and B vitamins! These patties are sweet and full of flavour and go beautifully between iceberg lettuce leaves. Add some homemade zesty guac and salsa, rocket and portobello mushrooms and you have a truly awesome (and clean) burger!
