Our Slow Cooked Pork with Chilli Brussel Sprouts was such a hit, we decided to come up with another way for you to use up your leftovers and create a tasty gut-friendly sweet potato dish. We are all about making the most out of leftovers here at TNN, so we thought we’d show you how to put a tasty spin on them. And besides, who doesn’t love sweet potato?
