Healthy Tip #2 - Sweet Potatoes

Sweet potatoes are a great source of fiber, beta-carotene, and Vitamin E. Sweet potatoes are also a complex carbohydrate, which means your body can use the energy in the sweet potato over a long period of time without needing to store it as fat.
The other great thing about sweet potatoes is that they taste great. I like to nuke mine for about 9 minutes and then mix in 1tsp of Splenda brown sugar. It's fast, and tastes great. You can also cut them into wedges, spray them with a little non-stick spray, and bake them in the oven at 450 degrees...instant sweet potato fries.
