CHICKEN-STUFFED SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius (390 Fahreneheit).
• Pierce the sweet potatoes and place them on a large baking tray.
• In a bowl, add the chicken breasts, oil, garlic, paprika, salt and pepper, and mix well to coat.
• Place the chicken breasts onto an oven-proof dish and transfer to the baking tray to bake at the same time as the sweet potatoes.
• After 25-30 minutes check if the chicken is done, depending on the size of the sweet potatoes, they may take longer to cook.
• If the chicken is ready, remove from the oven and shred using 2 forks.
• Chop the spring onions, add the mozzarella and mix everything with the shredded chicken.
• When the sweet potatoes are tender, cut them in half horizontally, but not all the way through, and stuff with the chicken mixture.
• Return to the oven for 5-10 minutes so the cheese can melt.
• Serve with a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt, or just on their own.

• Combine the shredded chicken breast with red pepper paste. Use this mixture to top the sweet potatoes. Also, top them with Cheddar cheese.

HEALTHY CHICKEN-AND-CHEESE-STUFFED SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Microwave the sweet potato on high until tender (when you squeeze it with a clean dish towel, it should feel really soft), about 10 minutes. Let sit for a few minutes.
• Cut the potato in half but not all the way through. Using the dish towel to hold the potato in place, scoop out the flesh into a small bowl. Add the chicken, Cheddar and a pinch salt and mash everything together with a fork. Fill the potato skins with the mixture.
• Cut the avocado into small pieces. Drizzle the stuffed potato with the salsa verde and top with the avocado and scallion.

CHEESE-STUFFED SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Scrub potatoes, prick lightly with a fork and microwave for six minutes, or until done. (Or, bake in oven at 400 degrees F for one hour or until done.) When cool enough to handle, cut the potatoes lengthwise and scoop out the insides into a small mixing bowl. Set aside potato skins.
• Mash the cooked potatoes with the three cheeses and salt and pepper. Distribute the potato mixture evenly among the potato shells. Top each with the sliced green onion and sprinkle paprika on top.
• Return potatoes to the microwave (one minute on high) or oven (10 to 15 minutes at 350 degrees F) or until hot. Wrap or store in a portable container to bring to work or the gym; microwave on high for 1 1/2 to two minutes on high before eating.
