Bubble and squeak - Real Recipes from Mums

Bubble and squeak is a great way to get kids to eat veggies. You can add or omit which ever ones you like, potatoes are a must as they are the bulk of the mash. Sweet potato can be used in place of the potato. Serve as a main or as a side dish to a lamb chop or some chicken drumsticks.

Sneaky but a clever way for the kids or fussy adults to eat veggies! Some grown ups are finicky about veggies too.
