MY DRUMSTICKS with HERBS MASHED POTATO and SWEET POTATO!

OK, my husband doesn’t like and don’t eat chicken drums, however, I do. So today, I decided to make some yummy ones. They look so yummy and smell so good that he gave in and eat them, smile. Anyway, it was such a healthy combination, no skin on the oven baked chicken, baked sweet potatoes and mashed russet ones with avocado oil and cilantro.
