Sweet Potato Brownies

Ingredients:

1 cup cooked and mashed sweet potato (about 1 large or 2 medium sweet potatoes)
1/2 cup almond butter (or any nut/seed butter)
1/3 cup maple syrup (or honey)
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
Optional add-ins: 1/4 cup chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or dried fruit

Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
Prepare the sweet potatoes: Pierce the sweet potatoes with a fork and bake at 400°F (200°C) for 45-60 minutes, or until soft. Alternatively, you can microwave them for 6-8 minutes, turning halfway through.
Mash the sweet potatoes: Once cooked and cooled, scoop out the flesh and mash it until smooth.
Mix the batter: In a large bowl, combine the mashed sweet potato, almond butter, maple syrup, cocoa powder, vanilla extract, baking soda, and salt. Stir until well mixed. Fold in any optional add-ins like chocolate chips.
Pour the batter into the pan: Spread the mixture evenly in the prepared baking pan.

Creamy Chicken and Broccoli Pasta

Ingredients:

8 oz pasta (penne, fettuccine, or any pasta of choice)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
Salt and pepper, to taste
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups broccoli florets
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup chicken broth
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Optional: red pepper flakes for a little heat

Instructions:

Cook the pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the pasta according to the package instructions. Add the broccoli florets during the last 2 minutes of cooking. Drain and set aside.
Cook the chicken: While the pasta is cooking, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper, and cook until they are golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
Make the sauce: In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute. Stir in the heavy cream and chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Bring to a simmer and cook for 3-4 minutes, until the sauce starts to thicken.
Add the cheese and seasoning: Stir in the Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning, and season with additional salt and pepper to taste. If you want some heat, add a pinch of red pepper flakes.
Combine everything: Return the chicken, pasta, and broccoli to the skillet, tossing everything together until well coated with the creamy sauce.

4 ripe Roma tomatoes, diced
1/2 medium red onion, finely chopped
