Buffalo Chicken Stuffed Sweet Potatoes

Have you ever had Buffalo Chicken with sweet potatoes? It’s surprisingly a great combo – the sweetness of the potato makes for the perfect contrast to the spicy chicken!  I mean, who doesn’t love a stuffed baked potato? Especially, when it ALL cooks in the slow cooker (potatoes too)! With only FIVE ingredients! 🙌

Simply remove the potatoes after 6 hours, shred the chicken and top with your favorite Ranch dressing & chopped green onions. Done!  This is probably the easiest fix-it-and-forget-it Slow Cooker recipe ever! And any leftover chicken makes a great salad or wrap the next day!

If you are already a Frank’s RedHot sauce fan, this will be yet another delicious option for that amazing condiment. I mean a) it’s organic and Whole30 compliant, but b) and more importantly, it makes the BEST buffalo chicken every.single.time! Love me some @franksredhot !
