Quick Tip
Look for small to medium-size sweet potatoes, which are sweet and creamy. (Large ones tend to be starchier.) The skin should
be firm, smooth, and even-toned.

Once found at the bottom of Christmas stockings, oranges today mostly end up in breakfast-table juice glasses. Chock-full
of nutrients like vitamin C, they also lend sweet, tangy flavor to foods.
