I added ingredients and recipe for slaw below.  Ingredients: 3 sweet potatoes, peeled and cubes Avocado oil (or your preferred cooking oil) - just enough to coat the cubes of sweet potato maybe a tablespoon or two.  A dash of cinnamon 2tsp chili powder or less if you like less spicy.  Sprinkle of salt.  2-3 chicken breasts 1 cup your choice barbecue sauce 2-3 tablespoons of Italian dr...
