The hardest part of creating the body of your dreams is arguably the diet side of things and with that in mind I am always on the look out to find ways to make cooking easier.
When I spied that my local Asda had started selling pre- prepared sweet potato chunks my heat skipped a beat, well maybe not quite but I was pleased with my discovery.
When I am on the eat clean train sweet potatoes are a staple of my diet but with all the peeling and chopping it really puts me off.
After a long day at work the prospect of slaving away in the kitchen doesn't really tickle my pickle and often pushes me into the warm embrace of something quicker and easier and if anyone has ever dated I am sure you will know those options are not always the best.
Yes I could meal prep for the week but I have two issues with this the first is that I am limited on space.
I know, I know you all image that an infrequent blogger such as myself must be living it large in a palatial city apartment but I am sharing my fridge freezer with three other people so need to be considerate with the space.
The other reason is that I get bored.
My cupboards could be fully stocked I would still throw my hands up in the air and declare that I have nothing to eat.
At £1.50 for a 700g bag I think it's really good value for money and time saver with them ready to just slap in the oven or a boil in pan.
To make my sweet potatoes a bit more exciting I like to add rosemary and black pepper, both come with their own health benefits and add flavour without pushing up the calories.
If you, like me are still waiting to marry a professional chef Asda's sweet potato chunks are a great option while you are waiting for Gordon Ramsey to see sense and come knocking on your door.
