    Instead of White Potatoes Try Sweet Potatoes
    Baked, roasted, or mashed, sweet potatoes offer all the comfort-food satisfaction of white potatoes -- but with much more nutrition. One medium sweet potato delivers more than a day's worth of vitamin A (in the form of beta-carotene), plus 57 percent more fiber and 55 percent more vitamin C than white potatoes. Rich and moist, they taste great without loads of butter or sour cream.

      You can substitute an equal amount of fresh blueberries for the blackberries; be sure to rinse and dry them thoroughly before scattering over the batter.

      Yellow cornmeal produces a dessert that has a rich, golden color, but you could use white cornmeal instead.
