Nutritional values

Dietary fiber from potatoes is good for long-lasting satiety. In addition, the tuber contains as much vitamin C as apples - which promotes collagen formation in the connective tissue.

The thinner the mashed potatoes are, the crispier they become. And if you want to save calories, cook the potatoes the night before: The starch denatures during the cooling process. This prevents our body from utilizing them, and we consume around 10 percent fewer calories.

For the squash potatoes, wash potatoes and cook in boiling salted water until tender, 20 minutes. Then drain, rinse and drain. Allow to steam for about 5 minutes.
