Potatoes aren't just good to eat, they are  are a nutritious vegetable packed with essential vitamins and minerals that help support our bodies and increase energy levels. 

Potatoes are loaded with nutrients and contain a good amount of carbs and fibre as well as vitamin C, vitamin B6, potassium and manganese. They are more energy-packed than any other popular vegetable and are used in a variety of dishes all over the world!
