I'm doing cardio interval class and sports yoga (depending on how long I last).

Try cooking it in veggie broth & sprinkling Mrs. Dash Table Blend on after.
Something to try w/ mashed taters - cook them, skin on, w/ parsnips, rhutabaga or turnip and when you mash it all mix in veggie broth, minced/crushed garlic, salt & fresh cracked pepper, maybe a little parsley. Increases the fibre and nutrient values as well as the flavour.
That is a good idea.
Root vegetables, at least the farther we go north, are going to be healthier choices at this time of year - less distance to travel means they're fresher & less likely to be GM or from somewhere w/ little, if any, regulation on the use of pesticides. Plus, I like to support farmers as close to home as possible, preferably local organic farmers.
We've got tons of sweet potatoes up here, although they mistakenly call them yams. I've never seen a real, honest-to-goodness yam. As a matter of fact I was just thinking yesterday that its time to try out my black bean & sweet potato chili recipe (i ended up making a veggie chili of tomatoes, onion, bell pepper, carrot, corn, kidney beans, black-eyed peas & chickpeas w/ some cajun & chili seasonings). I also make a wicked curry w/ sweet potato and chickpeas and enjoy sweet potatoes 'fries' made by tossing them in EVOO and my homemade cajun seasoning blend, then baking them.
there are other foods that are genetically modified, tomatos for one thing and i think potatos, which is a root vegetable. i doubt stuff like turnips though.
