Potato Nuggets
Cheesy potato nuggets are an exquisite option for kids lunch box or snacking ideas! These crispy flavorful nuggets are so yum as it is or as a sandwich filling along with some other veggies and spread! This can be easily frozen and use, so it’s a great idea to make it in bulk and store in an airtight container so that you can use it when needed!
My kids and hubby loved it! The nuggets while having hot with tomato ketchup is too good. Crispy crust, fluffy flavorful potatoes and some gooey cheese in every bite are hard to stop munching on it! If you guys are searching for something simple and delicious with your chai to munch on go for it. This is a fully vegetarian recipe as i used all-purpose flour slurry to coat the nuggets instead of egg whites!
