Spinach, Garlic and Rosemary Griddlecakes
"Potato cakes never had it so good! With a mild background of spinach, the aromatic rosemary shines in this recipe while the sharp feta cheese adds a pleasing bite. You may make these cakes without the feta and Parmesan for a non-dairy version. Use an equivalent amount of egg substitute as the binding ingredient instead of eggs.
