These Bites make a great appetizer or snack and can serve as a main dish as well.

  • 4 cups sweet potatoes (cut in 1 Inch cubes)

Boil sweet potatoes in 1 cup filtered water in a large pot. Bring to a boil and cook until potatoes are tender (approximately 13 minutes).

Add the chopped kale in the last 3 minutes to soften. Drain sweet potatoes and kale.

Add potatoes, kale, black beans, spices and ground flax to a food processor and pulse until beans are well chopped (but not mushy) and everything is well mixed.

Serve and enjoy. Great dipped in Salsa.
