2CupsFrozen Mixed Vegetables (Corn Peas Carrots
3/4CupChicken Broth
1MediumOnion, DIced

Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Pierce each sweet potato several times with a fork and place them directly on the oven rack. Roast for 45-55 minutes, until soft and tender when poked with a fork.
While the sweet potatoes roast, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add diced onions and sauté until translucent (about 3-4 minutes). Next, add mixed vegetables and sauté for about 5 minutes, until tender. Add diced chicken breast, chicken broth, garlic powder, thyme, salt, and pepper. Stir well and simmer for 5-7 minutes, letting flavors combine. Remove the skillet from heat, and gently stir in the blended cottage cheese until creamy and well combined.
When sweet potatoes are finished roasting, carefully remove them from the oven. Slice each potato down the center and fluff the insides gently with a fork to create space for filling. Spoon generous amounts of the chicken filling into each potato, allowing the filling to overflow slightly.
Serve your stuffed sweet potatoes hot, garnished with thyme or other favorite herbs as desired.
