Baked Sweet Potato

Ah, baked sweet potatoes! I ate my first one years ago in Brixton, a West Indian area of London and it was love at first bite. It tasted so exotic. Fast forward to when I was in treatment, and didn't have the energy to do any real cooking. Popping a scrubbed sweet potato into the oven was the perfect solution; simple, delicious, and nutritious. Sweet potatoes are rich vitamins A, C, B6, Thiamin, Niacin and Riboflavin, not to mention necessary minerals like potassium and manganese. They even have some iron and calcium, all this before adding on any toppings. Not bad for such an easy treat.
