The Easiest, Cheapest, and Healthiest Way to Eat a Sweet Potato
The ingredients below may seem like a basket from Chopped, but this unlikely combination is actually one I adore...a lot.
With just a sweet potato, a serving of plain greek yogurt, and a generous supply of hot sauce, you can have yourself the perfect low-calorie, nutrient-filled meal. My roommate can attest to my claims, and has even stopped judging me for this odd fusion I that consume on a weekly basis. Not only is this a perfectly healthy dinner with which I like to follow my workouts, but it's also extremely cheap and super easy. All you need is a microwave and about 10 minutes (tops) to have the dish all ready to go.
I swear, I didn't even think I liked hot sauce before this.
