Organic sweet potatoes are a delicious winter vegetable that can be easily transformed into a dinner side, snack or even dessert. Plus, an excellent source of vitamin A, vitamin C and fiber – they’re super nutritious.
Here are three of my favorite ways to enjoy sweet potatoes:
Cinnamon Treat: Cut sweet potato in half. Use about a tsp of butter or margarine and top with cinnamon (and sugar if you really enjoy sweet.) Heat in the microwave for 2-3 minutes.
‘Italian’ Melt: Poke holes in potato and heat in the stove or microwave. Then, cut in half and scoop out a few tablespoons of the “insides.” Top with goat cheese (mozzarella or cheddar may also work well) oregano, garlic and pepper. Heat in the stove for 1- minutes at 400. Delicious!
What’s your favorite veggie? Do you tend to eat more fruits and vegetables when it’s warm outside?
