Although they taste too sweet to be healthy or have any nutritional value, sweet potatoes are actually a great addition to your diet.
Beta Carotene: sweet potatoes are a great source of beta carotene which your body turns into Vitamin A and uses for night vision and bone development
Fiber: helps you to feel fuller longer and keep your digestive system clean.
Vitamin C: most often associated with citrus fruits, Vitamin C aids in keeping your immune system strong.
These are just a few of the wonderful things sweet potatoes can do for you!
Love sweet potatoes but not quiet sure what to do with them? We love this savory, sweet dish perfect served up all on its own!
