During the Obama administration (2009 - 2017), several popular TV chefs were invited to The White House to prepare a meal for the First Family and guests. Everybody knows Mrs. Obama is big on healthy eating. When she moved in, she had a vegetable garden planted on the White House grounds. The TV chefs could prepare anything they wanted, as long as they used vegetables they picked from the WH garden. One of the chefs asked Michelle Obama if she had a favorite veggie. She said “Sweet potato.”
I'm cool with that. I love sweet potato! But I usually only eat them during the American Thanksgiving holiday. However, many dieticians and nutritionists claim that sweet potato is good to eat all year. So, in an effort to develop healthier eating habits, whenever I see a sweet potato recipe, I save it so I can try it later. Every have sweet potato for breakfast?
