Instructions

  • Boil enough water to cover the cashews. Pour the water over the cashews and allow them to soak while you prepare the potatoes.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (204 degrees C). Place the sweet potatoes and chicken on a baking sheet. Cook for 40 to 45 minutes, or until cooked through.
  • While the potatoes and chicken cook, make your pesto. Drain the cashews and place them into a blender or food processor along with the spinach, basil, garlic, olive oil, sea salt, and nutritional yeast. Blend until smooth.
  • Once the chicken and sweet potatoes are cooked through, remove from the oven and place the chicken into a small bowl. With two forks, shred the chicken until completely pulled. Add the pesto to the chicken and mix together until evenly combined.
  • Stuff each sweet potato with the shredded chicken. Enjoy!
