SWEET POTATO TOAST
www.vitalitynutrition.ca
Submitted by: Darian Kotchorek (2nd year Nutrition Student) Food trends are popping up on the regular and are taking every day favourite foods and combining them into one! I’m a sucker for toast with PB, honey, cinnamon and banana – but also love a good batch of sweet potatoes especially in the form of fries. Why not combine the two? Sweet potato toast can be topped in many ways and eaten at breakfast, lunch, dinner or as a snack. The topping options are endless ranging from savoury to sweet.
Sweet potatoes make a great addition to any meal, and in this case, replace the need for bread. These complex carbohydrates are rich in beta-carotene (Vitamin A), vitamin C, potassium and fibre!
