21 Day Fix Sweet Potato & Buffalo Chicken Casserole

I tried this one out earlier this week and it was delicious!  And, it fits perfectly with the 21 Day Fix -- win, win!

It is a great casserole recipe, that is healthy and not filled with store-bought cream soups.  It is, however, just as convenient.  Cut up your vegetables and chicken the night before and then just pop this into the oven when you get home in the evening!

Potato & Buffalo Chicken Casserole
(modified from PaleoLeap.com)

Serves: 4

• 2 lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into cubes
• 4 small sweet potatoes, cut into 1/2" cubes
• 1 tbsp. paprika
• 2 tbsp. garlic powder
• 6 tbsp. clean hot sauce
• 1/4 cup olive or melted coconut oil
• 6 slices bacon, cooked and cut into pieces
• 1 cup green onions, sliced
• Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.  In large bowl, combine the oil, paprika, garlic powder, hot sauce, and season with salt and pepper to taste. 

Add the sweet potatoes and chicken, and stir to coat.  Empty the bowl into a casserole dish.

Bake in the oven for 40-45 minutes, stirring every 10-15 minutes.

Add the green onions and bacon to the dish, and place back in the oven for another 5 minutes to let the flavors combine.

(For extra vegetables, feel free to add cut onions and bell peppers to the dish!)

(21 Day Fixers:  This recipe makes 4 servings.  Each serving = 1.5 reds, 1.5 yellows, 2 tsp., and you can count a green if you add the extra veggies!)
