Turmeric Potatoes

Please don’t fear potatoes: they are a good, high fiber, real-food source of complex carbohydrates. They are also high in protein, potassium, Vitamin C, and antioxidants called anthocyanins. This means that is good for your digestion AND skin! Plus they help keep you full and decrease cravings. Turmeric is anti-inflammatory and can even help alleviate stress (and depression) which we could all use right now! Fun fact: make sure you add black pepper to your dishes made with turmeric: it aids in improved absorption of turmeric, thus more #antioxidant and #antiinflammatory benefits! Pair this dish with a lean protein-like lentils that are also high in fiber-and some veggies and you’ve got a complete meal.

Great as leftovers with eggs for breakfast or Sunday brunch!
