What's better than a fast meal? The CLEAN UP! I love tinfoil dinners.
They are so easy to clean up, I think...why should I NOT cook like this more?
We were reading in a magazine called, "CLEAN EATING" and found this recipe.

1 clove garlic (I actually use 3 in mine, but it's because I LOVE garlic)
Olive oil cooking spray
12 oz. green beans, trimmed
2 sweet potatoes, peeled and diced into 1/2" cubes (NOTE: make sure to dice potatoes as directed so that it will cook at the same rate as the chicken)

Bring short edges of the foil together, then fold inward a few times along each long edge to seal.
Seal up the sides and place foil packets directly on the grill or on a large rimmed baking sheet in the oven.
Grill or bake for 25-30 min. |

Transfer contents of packets to serving bowls and garnish with additional cilantro.
