Not deep fried potatoes.
Not potatoes smothered in butter, margarine, or sour cream.
Low fat yogurt can be used as a topping, plain or with
herbs and spices.
But try potatoes that are baked, boiled, fried on a non-
stick surface with a minimum of oil or non-stick spray,
chopped into soups and stews, and on, and on.
It is extremely unfortunate that deep fried and salted
potatoes ("french-fries" or pomme de terre frit" or "pomme
frit", and potato chips) are so tasty, and are now the most
popular of all fast foods. But severely restrict your intake
if you don't want heart disease, stroke, and other
illnesses.
Potatoes are such a complete food that some societies in
South America (Andes of Bolivia, Ecuador and Peru, where
potatoes were first cultivated) eat little else.
Prepared with little fat or salt, Potatoes are healthful!

Volcano Tours In Baños Ecuador
In June of 2004, my wife and I spent a week in Banos, Ecuador. Our clean hotel room, with cable TV, cost $6 per night. It was $12 normally, but we're good negotiators. We paid just $1 for lunch each day ($2.25 total for both, with tip), which was usually chicken, rice, beans, salad and juice. Someti
Falling In Love In Ecuador
On my first trip to Ecuador I discovered that the official currency of is the U.S. Dollar. A nice surprize, since I thought I'd have to find a place to exchange money at midnight in Quito. Not only could I use the dollar bills in my pocket, but just one of them would buy a three-course lunch at a cl
Chimborazo: Climbing Glaciers Near The Equator
Climbing the glaciers to the summit of Mount Chimborazo in Ecuador isn't highly technical. It is mountaineering, but how hard can it be, considering I went to 20,600 feet the first time I used crampons and an ice axe? Okay, I used them once for practice, on a sledding hill near my house.
