Ingredients
  

2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed

1 cup cooked chicken breast, shredded or diced

1 ripe avocado, mashed

1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

1/4 cup Greek yogurt (optional for creaminess)

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

1/4 teaspoon paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro (optional)

Olive oil for drizzling

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

    Prepare Sweet Potatoes: Place the cubed sweet potatoes on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer.

      Roast Sweet Potatoes: Roast in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until fork-tender and slightly caramelized. Stir halfway through for even cooking.

        Mix Filling: While the sweet potatoes cook, in a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, mashed avocado, lime juice, Greek yogurt (if using), garlic powder, paprika, and additional salt and pepper. Mix until well combined.

          Assemble Bites: Once the sweet potatoes are done roasting, allow them to cool slightly. Using a spoon, scoop out a small portion from the center of each sweet potato cube to create a little well.

            Fill Sweet Potatoes: Spoon the avocado-chicken mixture into each sweet potato well, filling them generously.

              Garnish and Serve: If desired, top with chopped cilantro for added freshness. Serve warm as an appetizer or a light meal.
