Today in the Kitchen....

Our guest star for today is.....

Purple Sweet Potato! 
Also known as.....
Ube!(pronounced Ooh-beh!)
Okinawan Sweet Potato!
but most importantly....
DELICIOUS! 

If you couldn't tell, I love Purple Sweet Potato! I love it by itself, in soup, in pie, as ice cream! I like to use these yummy tubers as an excuse to get my daily serving of vitamin A and vitamin C. It's also a good source of fiber, iron and potassium. Like blueberries, this bright color yam contains antioxidants that help fight the badies in your body. Hi-yah!

Today in the kitchen we are experimenting with Ube-Haupia Pie, more specifically Mini Ube-Haupie pies because who doesn't love small versions of things! I'll let you know how things go... 

Coming up soon, a recipe for 'Me-So-Hungry Miso Marinade.'
Till next time...
Stay tuned! Stay hungry!
