Last night I prepped food for my lunches and I had sweet potatoes that needed to be used. My mom bought me a lovely stone/grill that can be used on stove top and in the oven.
For the sweet potatoes:
- pre heat oven to 375F
- wash them first, then slice them into 1" thick slices and lay them out on the pan/grill
- brush with olive oil (or any oil you like), season with pepper, wee bit of salt, and garlic powder
- pop them in the oven for about 15 minutes and check on them. Flip them when they have nice grill marks
- put them back in for another 10-15 minutes or until they're the tenderness you enjoy
For the chicken breasts:
- thaw them out (or almost: mine were still a tiny bit frozen since I took them out after work)
- cut off any excess fat (ick) and lay them on the pan/grill
- season both sides with: salt and pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and chili powder
- with your oven still at 350F, put them in for 15 minutes
- check on the grill marks and flip them. Return them to the oven for 5-10 minutes
- I have a meat thermometer so I went by that. 165F is a "safe" temp for chicken breast but I'm so paranoid I still cook mine to 170F or 175F. Mine last night were actually 190F lol.

I let them cool for a bit while I relaxed and watched tv. Once they were cool I portioned them out into lunch containers :)
My lunch for today: no greens or veggies because I figured I would be full after eating these tasty yumyums :)
