Mmmm sweet potatoes. How can you not think of fall when it comes to these? Not only does the color fit in perfectly with fall, but the sweetness makes this vegetable kid-friendly.  Sweet potatoes are also higher in fiber than regular potatoes and packed with Vitamin A.  Domesticated in Central and South America, sweet potatoes have also been found historically in Polynesia and New Zealand.  This versatile vegetable can now be seen all over the world as a staple crop.  Roast them, bake them, or mix them with regular potatoes and root vegetables.  Enjoy this wonderful fall veggie!
