Savory Sweet Potato Waffles with Sauteed Broccolini + DIY Photography Background

These Sweet Potato Waffles are really easy to prepare. The main thing is to quickly boil sweet potatoes and then mash it with a fork. All you need to do next is to mix all the ingredients, pour it on a preheated waffle maker!

Sweet potatoes are my favorite. Slightly sweet in flavor and packed with nutrients like Vitamin C, Vitamin A in the form of beta-carotene. I love to use them in savory dishes as well as in baking goods. I recently make  these savory sweet potato waffles and they’re on another level! Perfectly crispy, flavorful and healthy! You can top them off with savory as well sweet toppings.

Top them with fresh spinach (not necessary) and let the magic happen! They make an incredible breakfast, brunch or lunch! I topped them off with sautéed broccolini, avocado and pumpkin seeds.

 DIY FOOD PHOTOGRAPHY BACKGROUND

I recently made a new photography background to add to my little collection and I’m loving it. Food photography backdrops are pretty expensive and you can make it SO easy and cheap yourself! All you need is a plywood board, some flat paint samples, sponge, glove a little bit of creativity! It costed me $10 in total! So worth it.

Back to the waffles. These are the reasons why you need these Savory Sweet Potato Waffles:

• Perfectly crispy

• Gluten free

• High in vitamin C and vitamin A

• Good source of vitamin B6 and manganese

• Can be served with savory as well sweet toppings
