Potatoes, White

(Potatoes, White) The most economical way to buy white potatoes is bagged; however, some of the potatoes are usually damaged. Carefully inspect as many of the potatoes in the bag as you can to make sure that there is no rot or mold, as it will quickly spread to the rest of the potatoes. When the bag is opened, remove any damaged or bruised potatoes and use them first. If buying loose potatoes, select the most perfect ones. Baked potatoes are great with many meals or they can be cut up on a greens and veggies salad, or used in numerous recipes. See the nutritional chart below.

The above recipe is in keeping with God's creation intent (Genesis 1:29-31): 'Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground-- everything that has the breath of life in it-- I give every green plant for food." And it was so. God saw all that he had made, and it was very good.' (NIV) Let no animal suffer or die that we may live!
