Chef and James Beard Award-winning author Carla Lalli Music stops by TODAY to share her recipe for a tasty spin on a classic dinner: Roast chicken with potatoes and shrimp butter!
There's a whole rainbow's worth of potatoes to enjoy. And whether you prefer red, yellow or even purple potatoes, you'll get a good amount of energizing carbohydrates, gut-healthy fiber and essential vitamins. 'Potatoes are mostly known for containing carbohydrates, which is not a bad thing,' says Natalie Rizzo, registered dietitian and TODAY.com nutrition editor.
Purple potatoes Purple potatoes are technically a type of sweet potato, Rizzo says. So they provide a lot of the same benefits as sweet potatoes, plus one unique nutrient: They're known for containing large amounts of anthocyanins, a type of plant pigment that may have antioxidant properties, Gentile says. These compounds, which are thought to be anti-inflammatory and help reduce 'bad' cholesterol, are also found in dark colored fruit, like blueberries and blackberries.
