Sweet potatoes are in peak season, so now is the perfect time to add them to your grocery cart and your weekly menu!  Sweet potatoes earn a perfect NuVal score of 100 because of their high nutritional value.  In fact, one medium sweet potato provides over 100 percent of the daily value of vitamin A.  They are also high in vitamin C with 30 percent of the daily value, and a good source of fiber with four grams. 

Believe it or not, covering them with butter, brown sugar and marshmallows is not the only way to serve them!  Instead, join your Lenexa Hy-Vee Registered Dietitian for five healthy recipe suggestions for sweet potatoes. With these delicious new recipe ideas, you won’t miss the marshmallows!  We hope to see you!
