BEAUTIFUL SWEET POTATO BREAKFAST BOATS

 Most mornings start with exercise for me, so it is important to refuel afterwards and prepare myself for the day ahead!

Using sweet potato as the carb source at breakfast time is such a fantastic option. Full of vitamin A, C and beta-carotene they are the perfect gluten free, low GI carbohydrate source with benefits!

Instructions :

1. Pre heat your oven to 190 degrees celcius
2. Rub the outside of your potato with a small amount of olive oil and sprinkle cinnamon over the skin
3. Prick the skin all over with a fork and then wrap up in some aluminum foil, placing into the oven to roast for 30-60 minutes, depending on the size, check at 30 minutes by pricking with a fork or butter knife
