Power Your Morning with Potassium

When it comes to nutrition, there are only a few veggies that can pass as a dessert and still have a nutritional profile worth boasting. Surprisingly lower in calories than you would probably think, a medium sweet potato baked with the skin on has only about 100 calories. But the sweet taste, combined with a creamy texture make it the perfect dessert swap. And since we’re already talking about taking sweet potatoes out of their traditional “dinner veg” role, let’s keep that momentum and give them a whirl at breakfast.
