Before the Whole30 I never knew how much of a vehicle sweet potatoes would be. Shoot, I barely ate sweet potatoes! Now I use them any chance I get to stuff them with some sort of meat, sauce and other veggies. If you think this sounds weird... keep scrolling I promise I will change your mind. Whether you are eating Whole30, Paleo or somewhere in your Food Freedom, you need to add this Buffalo Chicken Sweet Potato to your rotation.

My favorite version of stuffed sweet potatoes is this Buffalo Chicken Sweet Potato. It is tangy, spicy and creamy with my 10-ingredient ranch dressing. You can always make your own buffalo sauce if you want, but there are so many good ones on the shelves that have clean ingredients. The New Primal is my personal favorite buffalo sauce, they have mild, medium and hot for you to choose from to make it perfect for you. Use the code ALTITUDE at checkout on The New Primal site for 15% off your order.

I am all about simple, quick meals that can last you all week, whether it be for lunch or dinner. This meal is one that can last me all week if I want it to. However, I can make lots of shredded chicken and use them in other meals throughout the week. Variety and simplicity are key to my weekly meal planning if you can't tell by now! Another way to switch this meal up is by using different variety of sweet potatoes. The white sweet potatoes are my absolute favorite, it is more starchy than the orange ones, but tastes the same. There are also purple ones, which are delicious, too! However you choose to make your stuffed sweet potatoes, be sure you get a yummy sauce to top it with and you will be set!
