Ingredients
  

  • 3 medium russet potatoes
  • 2 cups riced cauliflower
  • 1 1/2 cup shredded lowfat Cheddar cheese
  • 2 large eggs lightly beaten
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 green onions sliced

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Grate potatoes and place on clean kitchen towel. Wrap towel around potatoes, hold over sink and squeeze to remove as much liquid as possible.
  • Transfer potatoes to large bowl. Stir in cauliflower rice, cheese and eggs. Stir in flour, salt and pepper. Add oil and stir.
  • Scoop ¼ cup batter onto prepared baking sheet. Shape into a 3-inch flat circle. Repeat with remaining batter on both baking sheets, forming 16-18 latkes.
  • Bake 30 minutes, or until set and browned underneath. Flip and bake 10 minutes, or until lightly brown on the bottom.
