Is there anything a sweet potato can't do? Well, probably, but adding delicious flavor and texture to a healthy smoothie is not one of them. Creamy and refreshing, this Paleo-friendly recipe is the perfect way to make use of leftover sweet potatoes when you're craving something sweet and satisfying. Sweet potatoes boast plenty of beta carotene, and their Vitamin A and C content make them excellent immunity boosters. Not to mention, one medium sweet potato provides roughly 4 grams of protein, 6 grams of fiber, and just 162 calories.
