3) Buffalo Chicken Stuffed Sweet Potatoes

Tangy buffalo sauce against the natural sweetness of a baked potato is one of those flavor combinations that just works. The Greek yogurt keeps the filling creamy without making it heavy, and you can dial the heat up or down depending on which kid you're trying to keep happy that night.
