Description
A vibrant and flavorful taco bowl featuring roasted sweet potatoes, seasoned ground beef, creamy guacamole, and fresh pico de gallo.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups Sweet Potatoes (Cubed)
- 2 tablespoons Olive Oil (Or avocado oil)
- 1 teaspoon Smoked Paprika (Or regular paprika)
- Salt, to taste
- Pepper, to taste
- 1 pound Ground Beef (Or turkey, chicken, or black beans)
- 2 tablespoons Taco Seasoning (Homemade or store-bought)
- 1 cup Pico de Gallo (Diced tomatoes, onion, cilantro)
- 1 cup Guacamole (Mashed avocado with lime juice)
- 1/2 cup Sour Cream (Or Greek yogurt)
- Optional Toppings: Crumbled cheese, lime wedges, tortilla chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) so it’s ready for the sweet potatoes.
- Place the cubed sweet potatoes in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix until evenly coated.
- Spread the sweet potatoes out in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, tossing halfway through, until they are golden and tender.
- Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef, breaking it apart. Cook until it’s browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary.
- Sprinkle the taco seasoning over the browned meat, stirring to combine. Add a splash of water if needed. Continue cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes, letting the spices meld together.
- Once the sweet potatoes have finished roasting, it’s time to build your bowl. Start with a layer of sweet potatoes at the bottom, then top with seasoned ground meat.
- Spoon over fresh pico de gallo and guacamole. Finish with a drizzle of sour cream and any other toppings you desire.
- Serve immediately, garnished with lime wedges for that extra zing!
