I used to be thrilled for the chance to encourage hundreds of individuals to embrace a vegan way of life by means of their non-profit platform!

She let me know that Veganuary gathered a panel of specialists to find out 2024’s official Vegetable of the Yr. The panel decided that the purple candy potato was the winner, and hoped I’d be up for sharing a recipe.

The purple candy potato is a powerhouse relating to diet. I usually discuss “consuming the rainbow” and the colourful purple coloration of this potato comes from disease-fighting antioxidants referred to as anthocyanins. In accordance with a 2021 research in Antioxidants, the excessive antioxidant content material in purple candy potatoes fights irritation and helps scale back our threat for coronary heart illness and most cancers. These root tubers are full of fiber, vitamin C and potassium. As half of a complete meals plant-based weight loss plan, consuming candy potatoes can contribute to weight reduction, improved immunity and coronary heart well being.
