Sweet Potato Bread

This Sweet Potato loaf by Teresa Cutter- They Healthy Chef has been an absolute favourite with our naturopaths lately!

It’s the perfect loaf to make for a savoury breakfast option or a snack on the run. It’s is a great source of protein, fibre and calcium! It can also make a great lunch box addition.

If you like the taste of herbs it is wonderful to add a handful of fresh, chopped thyme and rosemary into the actual mixture.

We hope you like it as much as we do!
