Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.

  2. Slice the sweet potato into rounds about half a finger thick.

  3. Arrange the rounds on a baking tray in a tight rectangle, forming a loaf‑shaped base.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: Rounds form a compact loaf shape with minimal gaps. Arrange them close together so the base holds as one piece.

  4. Sprinkle the grated parmesan evenly over the sweet potato rounds, covering them well.

  5. Bake for about 30 minutes at 350°F until the sweet potato is tender and the cheese is golden and crisp.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: Sweet potato is tender and cheese is golden and crisp. Check the center rounds before removing the tray.

  6. While the sweet potato bakes, heat a skillet over medium heat and add the diced chicken.

  7. Season the chicken with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika, and cook until fully done, about 5–7 minutes.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: Chicken is cooked through and seasoned evenly. Turn the pieces as they cook for consistent browning.

  8. Add the crushed tomato to the skillet, stir, and cook for 2–3 minutes until the mixture is heated through and combined.

  9. Remove the sweet potato from the oven and flip the loaf so the crispy cheese side is facing down.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: Base flips with its crisp cheese side facing down. Use a wide spatula to support the loaf while turning.

  10. Spread the cottage cheese evenly over the sweet potato surface.

  11. Top the cottage cheese with the chicken‑tomato mixture.

  12. Arrange the sliced avocado on top of the chicken mixture.

  13. Fold the sweet potato loaf like a sandwich, slice if desired, and serve immediately.
