During these times many of us have a home office and a little extra time to prepare healthy meals.
My grandpa told me they used to eat potatoes and oats every day during the second world war.
The upcoming weeks will be spent mostly in our homes, to prevent spreading the virus. And not to seem dramatic, but it almost feels like some kind of war.
We don’t have our freedom the same way to just go out and be social, so we might as well enjoy the time spent at home and make good healthy food.

Potatoes are full vitamin C, which helps you build up your immune system to prevent getting sick. They are also full of fiber, which make them great for your digestive system. On top of that, they are super filling and make you full for hours. Since I started eating more plant-based, sweet potato is one of my favorite vegetables. Potatoes can be prepared in so many different ways. Cooked, baked, fried, or even being used in bakeries. The sweet taste gets even sweeter after cooking them, and they taste delish with olive oil and sea salt. This recipe only includes 3 main ingredients. And are super easy to prepare for yourself, or just double up the portions for more people.
