All about timing...



Here is a super easy dinner I made myself tonight!
(it will make a nice meal plus a plate of leftovers)

This is all about the timing, but if you plan ahead
to put the sweet potatoes in, youre golden!

If you put the chicken in after the sweet potatoes are done
and then prep the tomatoes, put the tomatoes in at 16 min until the
chicken is done and everything will be timed perfect!
(the sweet potatoes will stay warm in the foil :))

part 1
hobo sweet potatoes

ingredients:
1 or 2 medium to large sweet potatoes
1 shallot

how to:
slice both ends off the sweet potatoes and peel the skin off
slice halfway down, but not all the way through to allow for quick cook time
