In another bowl, combine blue cheese, green onions, and a pinch of salt and pepper.

Once sweet potatoes are done, let them cool slightly before slicing them open.

Scoop out a small portion of the sweet potato flesh to create space for the filling.

Fill each sweet potato with the buffalo chicken mixture.

Top with the blue cheese mixture and return to the oven for an additional 5-10 minutes.

Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving.

Garnish with diced celery and cucumber, if desired.

Serve on a bed of lettuce for added crunch.
