Try These 3 Sweet Potato Dishes

Sweet potatoes are related to the morning glory family and not the potato, which is a common misconception. This versatile root vegetable may be used in a variety of ways, including boiling, steaming, grilling, deep-frying, baking, mashing and sautéing, but they are more nutritious if cooked in their skins. Store them for months at a time in a cool, dark cabinet or pantry.

Sweet potatoes are packed with antioxidants, anti-inflammatory nutrients and blood sugar-regulating nutrients. The orange-fleshed variety are also rich in beta-carotene, which helps strengthen our eyesight and boost our immune system. Sweet potatoes don’t have to take a long time to prepare—simply cut them into 1/2-inch slices and steam for just 7 minutes to bring out their great flavour and maximize their nutritional value.
