Hey guys! Sorry I have been MIA but here is an amazing recipe you should try!
All you have to do is cut a few sweet potatoes into fry-shaped pieces. Throw them in a large plastic bag with about 1/4 cup organic coconut oil and a handful of chopped basil. Shake the bag to disperse ingredients. Spread fries out onto baking sheet and bake for about 30 minutes on 400. I also like to broil mine for a few minutes at the end to make them crispy!

Sweet potatoes have one of the highest amounts of Beta-carotene than any other vegetable, even carrots. They also have large amounts of Vitamin C and Manganese. Add sweet potatoes to your diet and you’ll be improving your immune system, enhancing your mental function, reducing your risk of cancer, and improving your complexion! Sounds like a WIN-WIN if you ask me!
Peel and cut up a raw sweet potato into snack-size sticks, sprinkle some cinnamon and raw stevia on top, and you have yourself a nutritious sweet tasting snack! Who needs carrot sticks when you can have sweet potato sticks?!
I know we typically think of sweet potatoes as a starchy vegetable, but they actually have the ability to IMPROVE blood sugar regulation. Recent studies have found that sweet potatoes can significantly raise levels of the protein hormone Adiponectin, a hormone known to enhance insulin metabolism. Therefore, people with Diabetes could especially benefit from drinking sweet potato juice! Sweet potatoes also contain batatins and batatosides, which fight against bacterias and fungi! Keeping the sweet potato in its raw form ensures that you are getting optimal nutrients since its minerals are converted into inorganic atoms when cooked.
Hope you have a SWEET Friday the 13th! 🙂
