These delicious yucca pancakes are one of my family's favorite dishes! They're so good that I usually make a second batch so I have some left over for the next day. The best thing about them is that they're so easy to make and they go with any kind of meal. My kids like when I add butter and fresh cheese on top. Go ahead and make them, you'll love them!
