WHY IT’S HEALTHY

Potatoes can get a bad rap, but they provide plenty of antioxidants and nutrients. They are wonderful source of potassium, which is important for building strong bones and supporting heart health and provide about 20% of your daily needs of manganese which is important for bone and nerve health.  Potatoes are a good source of vitamin C, fiber and B vitamins. This recipe uses avocado oil because it is a healthy unrefined oil like extra virgin olive oil but it has a high smoke point – it can be safely used when cooking in temperatures of up to 500℉.
