The sweet potato is a very good source of dietary fiber, potassium, vitamin A and C and calcium. A medium sweet potato has about 130 calories. This nutritious vegetable can be baked, pureed or roasted with other root vegetables. To keep your calorie count down, try baking the potato and serving with a little bit of butter.
Oven roasted root vegetables, including beets, butternut squash, carrots and sweet potatoes, that are lightly dressed with olive oil and herbs are another healthy holiday food.
