Description

A delicious and healthy meal that combines roasted sweet potatoes, spiced meat, and fresh toppings for a quick weeknight dinner.


Ingredients

  • 1 large sweet potato, peeled and cubed
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • ½ lb ground beef (or turkey/lentils for a vegetarian option)
  • 1 tbsp taco seasoning (store-bought or homemade)
  • ½ cup pico de gallo
  • ¼ cup guacamole
  • 2 tbsp sour cream (or a dairy-free option)


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss the sweet potato cubes with olive oil, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Spread in a single layer on a sheet pan and roast for 15 minutes. Flip and roast for another 10–15 minutes until golden and tender.
  2. In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef (or turkey/lentils). Stir in taco seasoning and 2 tablespoons of water. Simmer for 2–3 minutes until thickened.
  3. Divide the roasted sweet potatoes into bowls. Top with the cooked meat, pico de gallo, guacamole, and sour cream.

Notes

Customize your bowl with additional toppings like cilantro, lime wedges, or crumbled cheese. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for 3 to 4 days.
