You may love to order sweet potato fries at your favorite local burger joint and may have baked them in a casserole for Thanksgiving dinner, but did you know that sweet potatoes can be used to make breads, desserts, salads, smoothies, and even burgers?
Believe it or not, you can even use them to make breakfast!
By incorporating sweet potatoes into those dishes, you’re not only adding a big dose of flavor, you’re also supplying your body with vitamin C (which is necessary for collagen production), vitamin D (which will help to keep your energy levels up during the hectic holiday season), iron, and vitamin B6.
Tip: Â Store your sweet potatoes in a dark cabinet or pantry to help them last longer.
