purple sweet potato boats

my absolute favorite pre workout snack -

it’s rich in resistant starch, antioxidants. high in protein and moderate in healthy fats making it filling and energizing.

purple sweet potatoes are a fabulous source of vitamins, fiber, and anthocyanins (which help in reducing inflammation!!!) cooking them ahead of time and allowing them to cook before consumption will increase the content of resistant starch - lowering the glycemic index among other great benefits.

what you’ll need

• 1/2 medium purple sweet potato

• 1 oz natural peanut butter

• 200g non fat Greek yogurt

• optional cinnamon, brown sugar & goji berries to top

what to do

• roast the sweet potato at 350° for 45min

• allow to cool before topping with yogurt, peanut butter, and additional toppings

• enjoy

I like to prep a batch of sweet potatoes early in the week to have in the fridge.
