A baked potato seems like a boring meal, and it can be. Which is why when I decide to take on the task (okay not hard — but it takes a long time!) I try to stuff them with something.
Sometimes that’s cheese or chili, but if it’s a new year and you’re trying to eat healthier, it’s a healthy chicken salad that is seasoned liberally with a sweet and spicy seasoning blend by Ava Jane’s Kitchen. Oh, and it’s not a regular potato, but a jewel tones sweet potato. The seasoning is almost like it was made for sweet potatoes.
This is a great way to use up leftover chicken, and if you do that (or pre-cook some) then dinner is so easy you won’t even believe it. Because isn’t that the best kind?
Serves 2
Prep time: 90 minutes
Ingredients:
2 sweet potatoes
1 cup cooked and chopped chicken breast
1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
1 tablespoon mayonaise
4 green onions, diced
2 stalks celery, diced
2 teaspoons Ava Jane’s Kitchen Sweet Habanero Seasoning
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Put the potatoes on a baking sheet and prick with a fork. Bake for an hour or until tender — the size and shape will determine how long it takes to bake. Alternatively, you can cook them in the microwave.
Combine the remaining ingredients in a medium bowl and mix well.
When the potatoes are done, split open and stuff with the chicken salad mixture.
