¾ tsp salt or to taste
3 cups shredded chicken
6 medium sweet potatoes
Coconut oil and salt for baking
HOW TO MAKE IT

While potatoes are in the oven, prepare pesto by combining all pesto ingredients in a blender or food processor. Blend on high and scrape down the sides as needed.
Top baked sweet potato with generous portion of chicken and return to the oven for a few minutes to heat thoroughly.
