Potatoes:

A Nutrient-Dense Vegetable

Consumers are looking for ways to eat better, feel better, and live better—yet still want to enjoy themselves, especially when dining out. There is a huge opportunity for chefs and kitchens to showcase their creativity with big, bold flavors while still delighting their guests with healthier, lighter plates. To do this, they need ingredients that are as healthy as they are flavorful, as familiar as they are unique, and as versatile as they are affordable.

Enter: potatoes!

One medium potato (5.3 oz, skin on) has about 100 calories, 897 mg of potassium, and is more energy-packed than any other popular vegetable. In other words, potatoes don’t just taste great, they’re a great way to highlight better-for-you dishes and offer a nutrient-dense alternative to grains or pasta.
