How much vitamin A is really in sweet potatoes?
You may have read that one sweet potato can provide up to 400% of your daily vitamin A requirement – and yes, that’s true! Depending on the variety and size, 130-150 g of sweet potato can even provide up to 1,400 µg of retinol equivalents – that’s more than 150 % of the recommended daily amount according to the US reference values (DV).
In Europe, the recommended reference value for adults is 800 µg of vitamin A per day (EU-NRV). Since this recipe with a large sweet potato (approx. 400 g) makes 4 toasts, a single toast contains about 100 g of sweet potato – i.e. approx. 709 µg of vitamin A.
➔ This corresponds to approx:
So with just one toast, you already cover around three-quarters of your daily requirement – with two you are easily at 150%! 🎉
Why is vitamin A so important for you? 🧡
Vitamin A is a real all-rounder for your health. It:
- supports healthy vision, especially in the dark,
- promotes cell renewal and regeneration,
- strengthens your immune system and has an antioxidant effect,
- and helps to maintain healthy skin and mucous membranes.
An adequate supply of vitamin A can be particularly valuable in the winter months or when you spend a lot of time in front of a screen – and how nice when it’s also so tasty! Taken in the form of beta-carotene – your body can convert this into the active form if required. And as the recipe contains good fats (e.g. from avocado & olive oil), the fat-soluble vitamin is also optimally absorbed! Sounds like an absolute win-win situation! 😎
Meal prep & enjoyment tips 🤤
- You can pre-bake the sweet potato slices in the evening and simply toast or warm them up in the morning – perfect for a stress-free morning! 🧘🏽♂️
- The beetroot cream can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 days. It also goes perfectly with baked vegetables – e.g. my recipe for roasted Brussels sprouts! 💪🏼
- If you like beetroot: replace it with a pea cream – then it’ll be really green! 🌱💚
Conclusion: Sweet potato toast with avocado & beetroot cream – simple, colourful & nutritious
This recipe is a real feel-good dish for me. Especially because I keep realising that I don’t tolerate most shop-bought bread as well as I would like. And unfortunately, I don’t get round to baking my own bread often enough in my everyday life… 🫣
It combines everything you need: nutrients, flavour, colour and a good mood. Whether for breakfast, as a snack or a small dinner – these sweet potato toasts will fill you up and make you happy. I’m living proof! 😂
