Sweet versions of pumpkin pancakes are a great option for breakfast, but this savory version is just as tasty. Chili flakes, rosemary, and a touch of parmesan bring out the savory side of the winter squash. Choose your own topping: a simple drizzle of olive oil, a few blue cheese crumbles, some freshly toasted walnuts, or a dusting of fresh herbs are all delicious finishing touches to these flavorful flapjacks.

The beautiful color of these potato pancakes comes from raw beets, which add earthy flavor as well as nutrients like folate and manganese to your Meatless Monday dinner. Serve these vegetable pancakes with homemade applesauce for just a touch of sweetness and even more flavor and nutrients. Another unique way to cook up these vegetable pancakes would be to make one batch with yellow beets and a batch with red, for even more colors on your Meatless Monday plate.
