Are potatoes part of a healthy diet and lifestyle?
<p>Potatoes are healthy! One medium, baked potato only contains about 100 calories. Baked or boiled potatoes are already conveniently portioned, making it easy to control the calories. Remember, it is the extras, such as butter or sour cream added during or after the preparation, that increase the number of calories!</p>
<p>For delicious and healthy potato topping ideas, try substituting these low-fat alternatives: yogurt with chives; whipped low-fat cottage cheese blended with lemon juice; grated <span class="dnqHrT_6VMwp4LwF3zD9">Parmesan</span><span> </span>cheese; calorie-reduced salad dressings; or a mixture of herbs. </p>
