Boost kids' nutrition with sweet potato recipes they'll love

(Family Features) - It may not be as hard as you think to get kids to eat more veggies. Sweet Potatoes are naturally sweet and delicious, so you don't have to disguise them and trick your kids into enjoying healthier foods.

• The sweet potato is a complex carbohydrate that contains more than one-third the recommended daily requirements of vitamin C.

• Potassium in sweet potatoes also helps maintain fluid and electrolyte balance in the body cells, as well as normal heart and nerve functions.

By adding Louisiana Sweet Potatoes (both fresh and canned) to your kids' diet, you're boosting their nutrition and helping them learn healthy eating habits. Because they're available year-round, it's easy to incorporate sweet potatoes into any meal, from breakfast to dessert.

For more recipes the whole family will want to dig into, visit the Louisiana Sweet Potato Commission's Web site, www.sweetpotato.org .

Yamster the Hamster® encourages kids to learn more about sweet potatoes. To see Yamster and for recipes that kids can help prepare with adults, go to  www.sweetpotato.org .

Sweet potatoes, sometimes called yams, are loaded with nutrition.

Sweet potatoes have more vitamin A than any other vegetable. Vitamin A is necessary for strong tissues and maintaining a healthy immune system.

If canned sweet potatoes or yams are on sale and the fresh produce sweet potatoes are not... Fear not.  Bruce's canned yams are very good and if on sale, you can purchase a large can for $2.00. This can will feed 3-4 people, depending on how much they like yams!  All you need to do is open the can, pour into a pot, and heat..Add butter, salt and pepper..Serve... Simple, not too sweet.  I also dot the yams or sweet potatoes on top when I put them on a dish.

I have never figured out why people love to
add marshmallows to Yams!  Yams and Sweet Potatoes are naturally sweet..  However, I always include the standard holiday recipes, because marshmallow and Yams are traditional.  I personally find this combo way too sweet.
Everyone has their own tastes and this is what makes cooking for people fun!

A note on Dogs:  I have three dogs, and none
of them like sweet potatoes.  One of my dogs will eat just about anything, one is elderly and one is just plain spoiled .
I have baked cookies and added sweet potatoes to their food, and none of them would touch the food.

What kind of Dogs?  An 8 Year Old German Shepherd,
A 4 year old Airdale/Berger Picard Mix and
My little lady, a small mixed terrier, that has
been with us since 1996 and is 15 years old.
Yes, I do bake and cook for them.. It is cheaper than buying commercial dog biscuits, and I know what goes into the food.
