Sweet Potato Brownie Recipe
It was a "challenge accepted" moment for me when I noticed some of my kids pushing back against our quest for organic/clean eating in our household. I had scrolled past this recipe time and time again on social media thinking "there is no way in h@!! these kids are going to fall for that." Not only did they fall for it, they loved it. AND they weren't surprised or mad when I told them the secret ingredient... SWEET POTATO!
