National Potato Month

September is known for a few things, but we're here to talk about National Potato Month! Potatoes have several healthy nutrients. They are high in fiber and potassium. They have several different vitamins and minerals, including Vitamin C. A regular size potato with skin contains a little over 150 calories, and almost no fat! All the fat that we consume with potatoes, come from all the extra things we add to them. Here is a potato recipe that will be sure to be a great side dish on the table!
