Ways To Enjoy Sweet Potatoes

Post by ahmedsarah194 » Dec 27, 2013 Views: 1370

Sweet potatoes are enriched in vitamin B6, C and D as well as magnesium and iron. In some ways they are healthier than regular potatoes. There are many ways to whip them up.

Potato snacks - You can make super food snacks by using sweet potatoes. Thinly slice potatoes after peeling them off and brush them lightly with olive oil. Bake at 350 degree for 15 minutes until crispy and lightly brown. One baked medium sized sweet potatoes contains 438% of your daily value of vitamin A, 37 % of vitamin C and calcium as well as iron and potassium. This all just have 105 calories.
Sandwiches -. Cut thin slices of cooked sweet potatoes and add them in your sandwich with other topping.
Steamed and mashed potatoes - Steam peeled sweet tomato chunks for minimum ten minutes until tender. Mash them with orange juice and enjoy sweet and sour potatoes. To add more taste, season it with ground cumin, pepper and salt.
Sweet potato salad - Add sweet potatoes in your favorite salads. Mix potato cubes, minced garlic, sliced onion and olive oil. Place all mixture on aluminum foil and sprinkle with pepper, salt and preferred spices. Bake this mixture for 40 minutes in already preheated oven to 400 degrees F.
Sweet potato fries - After peeling off potatoes slice them and fry them in olive oil with chilled drinks. For spicy twist, add a dash of cayenne pepper and sauces.
Grilled sweet potatoes - Slice sweet potatoes into thick ½ inch round and grill them until lightly brown and drizzle with sour taste of few drops of lime juice.
Sweet potato smoothie - You can make sweet potato smoothie and it would be difficult for others to distinguish the difference between pumpkin and potato smoothie. To make smoothie, cook and cool two large sweet potatoes. Blend cooled potatoes with one medium banana, one cup of plain almond milk, one teaspoon ground cinnamon approximately for 2 to 5 minutes. After blending, add a little whipped cream on top if desired. To give it more desert-like flavor, serve it after placing it in freezer for about half an hour.
