Potatoes are a great source of carbohydrate that fuels our bodies with energy. This is an easy and quick to make version of this starchy vegetable. Serve it as a side dish, or as the star of the show with toppings like guacamole, pico de gallo, salsa, shredded cheese, sour cream, and ground meat or Beyond Meat (a vegetarian meat alternative). Click here to access the original recipe from Love and Lemons and for their baked sweet potato version click here.
