I have always loved celebrating Chanukah! Even during this pandemic, our festive lights glow bright and my home sparkles with holiday spirit. And let’s not forget about the food! Traditionally the food isn’t so healthy- lots of chocolate and jelly donuts and fried food. Over the years, I have learned how to create a healthy Chanukah meal! And potato latkes take center stage.
But, traditionally latkes are fried in oil and since I like to keep healthy, I bake my latkes. And whether you use white potatoes or sweet potatoes both are healthy for you.

Don’t forget to serve the latkes with applesauce (no sugar) or sourcream (low fat)!
Enjoy!!
