Nutritional values

The baked sweet potato scores with the plant pigment beta-carotene, which protects the body's cells from damage. The sweet potato also contains a lot of potassium - the mineral has a balancing effect on the body's fluid balance and helps to stabilise blood pressure. Bitter substances from the aubergine stimulate the production of digestive juices and thus give the intestines a proper boost.

Are you missing some ingredients for the filling? No problem, because the stuffed sweet potato is super versatile and therefore perfect for recycling! Why don't you try for example a sweet variation with apples, banana and nutmeg as filling.
