Use Those Leftovers: Roasted Chicken and Sweet Potato Sandwiches

I hate throwing perfectly good food away but there are some nights that eating the leftovers is about as appealing as that fourth set of jump squats. As in, I'm not going to do it. That's when you have to take a second look at what's in the fridge and give it a makeover.

Not every meal has to look pretty on the plate and this one isn't going to win any beauty pageants, but it does taste great and will totally fill you up. Serve it with a side of fresh fruit and you're good to go.

Here's what you need:
- 2 slices of Ezekiel Bread or Whole Wheat Bread, toasted
- 2-3oz cooked chicken breast, sliced
- 1/2c cooked sweet potatoes, mashed
- 1tbsp dried cranberries

It couldn't be more simple. While your bread is toasting, warm your sliced chicken and sweet potatoes. Spread the sweet potatoes on your toast and sprinkle with dried cranberries. Then layer the chicken and enjoy!
