These sweet potato and broccoli "tots" are a fun and tasty way to get some extra veggies into your little ones' diets. Plus, with the addition of rice and cheese, they're also a good source of protein. They're perfect for meal prep - just freeze them in an Anytime tray and pop them out whenever the kiddos (or adults!) are ready to eat.
All of Anyday’s recipes are tested (and retested!) in many different microwave and home kitchens to make sure they work— and work well. Unless specified otherwise, all recipes should be cooked at full power.
