Are You Tired of the Same Old Boring Potatoes?

healthy living Mar 26, 2023

There’s a new tuber in town that’s stealing the show - sweet potatoes!

Not only are they delicious, but they’re also packed with nutrients that regular potatoes just can’t compete with.

So let’s talk about how you can swap out your regular potatoes for sweet potatoes and give your body some real love!

First things first, let’s talk about blood sugar.

We all know how awful it feels to be on that blood sugar rollercoaster, constantly going up and down and feeling like a hot mess.

You'll be happy to know that sweet potatoes have a lower glycemic index than yellow, white or russet potatoes!

A boiled potato has a high GI around 78, while a boiled sweet potato has an intermediate GI of 63.

This is good news for anyone looking to avoid those pesky sugar crashes and mood swings and for type 2 diabetics.

So, how can you swap out those plain white potatoes for sweet potatoes?

It’s easy as pie!

(Or should we say, sweet potato pie?)

Here are some practical ways to use them:

  1. Mash it up - instead of regular mashed potatoes, mash up some steamed sweet potatoes with a little bit of olive oil and garlic for a delicious side dish.
  2. Fries, please! - cut up your sweet potatoes into fries and bake them in the oven for a healthy and tasty snack.
  3. Roasted goodness - cut your sweet potatoes into chunks and roast them in the oven with some olive oil and sea salt for a savory side dish.
  4. Sweet potato toast - slice your sweet potato lengthwise and bake it in the oven or toaster oven until tender. Top it off with some avocado or nut butter for a nutritious breakfast.

With so many delicious and nutritious options, sweet potatoes are truly the MVP of the tubers. So the next time you’re reaching for regular potatoes, consider giving sweet potatoes a chance.
