Sweet potato is just one of those foods ya know? Versatile, comforting & so nutrient dense. I love ’em mashed, baked, boiled, but my recent favourite is toasted. Yes, that’s right… Sweet potato in a toaster. BAM. It’s such a quick and easy snack or meal and the perfect option for those of you staying away from grains, like I do.
So, what’s so great about an orange potata? They’re packed full of benefits:
- mega high in beta-carotene (one of the most powerful antioxidants)
- anti-inflammatory
- regulates blood sugar levels
- rich in Vitamin A & C, potassium, and manganese
- low on the Glycemic Index
