I found these fabulous baby redskin potatoes at the farmers' market. What a treat!
So creamy and delicious, and loaded with nutrition.
Unfortunately, because potatoes are usually white inside, and they are a starchy vegetable, they have gotten a bad rap from the low-carb group. But they certainly do not belong in the "avoid white food" category that contains refined white flour, sugar and white rice. Unless you are deep frying them in oil as french fries, potatoes are a very healthy food.
Potatoes contain vitamins c and b6, potassium, fiber, and rival broccoli for their phytonutrient content.
Good potatoes do not require a lot of fussing. Prepared simply they are very satisfying. I used the green tops of red onions, but you can substitute chives, dill, rosemary, or any other herbs you like.
