POTATOES
|
|
Potatoes are a good source of Vitamin C, potassium, folate, calcium,
iron and vitamin B6. They also contain varying amounts of fibre
depending on the variety used. Potatoes belong to the "starchy carbohydrate" group of
foods and nutritionists recommend that we all eat more of this group of foods
than is currently the case
|
LEEKS
Leeks provide lots of vitamin C, vitamin B6, vitamin K, vitamin A,
folate, iron, magnesium and fibre. The only downside for leeks is
that they contain, for vegetables, a larger than normal amount of
sodium. |
