  • About 45 minutes before you’re ready to eat, preheat the oven to 400F. Spray both sides of the sweet potato halves with avocado oil spray and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place them cut side down on a baking sheet and roast for 30–40 minutes, until the cut side starts to caramelize. Let them rest for a few minutes.

  • Turn the crockpot off. Pull the chicken into smaller pieces right in the crockpot (don’t drain the liquid), add the Greek yogurt, and mix well.
    1 cup Greek yogurt
  • Place a sweet potato half cut side up on a plate and use a fork to dig a small well in the center. Spoon the buffalo chicken on top and finish with ranch dressing and green onions.

Notes

For less heat, use less buffalo sauce.
The sweet potatoes can also be baked or microwaved.
