Tricolor Vegetable Latkes image

We are serving a latkes buffet for the first night of Chanukah and I want to include this recipe. It sounds very interesting! Not only for Chanukah, especially if the vegetables can't be seen, perfect for picky eaters! Coastal Living Magazine, 11/2007 edition. Chef Judy Gallagher. I allowed for resting time.
