Method
 

Begin the "Pulled Chicken" recipe about 90 minutes to 2 hrs before you plan to serve.
    Steaming / Baking Sweet Potato - after chicken begins, start here!
    1. Wash and peel the sweet potato, and chop it into 1" cubes (or so).
    2. Add one inch of water to a steamer or pot with a steamer insert, and add the sweet potato. Cook on medium-high heat for 10-15 minutes, or until just soft. Better to stop early than have mushy sweet potatoes.
      Don't worry if you over-steam them: these will work for the wrap or stuffed sweet potato "bowls" option.
    If you'd rather, feel free to bake the sweet potato in the oven:
    1. Brush cubed sweet potato with 2 tbsp of ghee or coconut oil and sprinkle with a pinch of salt (optional). Bake in a preheated oven at 400°F for 25-35 minutes or until soft. Stir once.
      *if you brush with oil - this adds about 85 Calories to each plate. You may want to divide portions into seven (7) servings instead of 6.
    The Saute - start second
    1. Wash, prep and roll the beet greens, then slice into thin strips.
    2. Chop the onion into diced pieces or thinly slice it.
    3. On medium heat, saute the beet greens and onion in the avocado oil and spices. (Spare the olive oil).
    "WRAPS" version:
    1. Wash and trim the napa cabbage leaves.
    2. Fill each with 3 - 4 tablespoons of the chicken - sweet potato - beet green hash.
    3. Place thinly sliced avocado on top and drizzle with the "Coconut Verde Sauce".
    4. **If you want to leave these as "scoops" - don't fold them into wraps.**
    5. Creating Wraps: Napa cabbage is forgiving and "snaps" well into a wrap.
      Fold each end of the leaves over the filling and overlap the ends. (It's kind of like folding a piece of paper into thirds to place into an envelope.)
      Allow them to "SNAP" or break: they'll sit better and still hold the filling. Feel free to drizzle more "Coconut Verde Sauce" on top.
