I love December. I love the lights and the darkness. I love the holidays, and I love Hanukkah. I also love latkes, and I love playing with healthy ways to enjoy this holy comfort food. So I turned to an expert: Erin of the Forest Feast, whose latkes are gorgeous, inventive and so good I could make them all winter long. Here are two favorites courtesy of her blog.
Erin goes on to write, “Today is the first day of Hanukkah! It’s one of my favorite Jewish holidays because you get to light candles every night. Here’s a little round-up of favorite Forest Feast Hanukkah recipes: Cauliflower Potato Latkes, Sweet potato Latkes from The Forest Feast cookbook, Sufganiyot (jelly doughnuts) and DIY Citrus Menorah.”

May the eternal flame of peace always shine bright and
may you always light the world with the love in your heart!
Om Shanti! Om Shalom!
Do you like Latkes? What’s your favorite way to make them?
I am off to the store for the ingredients so I can make them tonight! Thank you, as always, for sharing. When I hear from you, I feel that my body and mind have been nourished.
Holiday hugs, Linda
oh well then we just missed seeing you there! thanks linda. i feel the same about you. holiday love to you and yours!
Laura, it’s so funny. I love winter too – specifically the light and darkness, and the quiet peacefulness it brings. These sweet potato latkes look wonderful and simple. My favorite latkes/patties to make Asian inspired sweet potato and red lentil.
I hope you’re enjoying a wonderful holiday season!
Thank you, Katie. Am I detecting a pattern? Seems you like your red lentils… So do I so I hope you will share your recipe. Happy days always!
