Description

A vibrant Sweet Potato Taco Bowl packed with flavor and nutrients, perfect for busy weeknights or family meals.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 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 vegetarian)
  • 1 tbsp taco seasoning (store-bought or homemade)
  • ½ cup pico de gallo
  • ¼ cup guacamole
  • 2 tbsp sour cream (or dairy-free alternative)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). In a large bowl, toss the cubed sweet potatoes with olive oil, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Spread them out in a single layer on a sheet pan. Roast for about 15 minutes. Flip the sweet potatoes and continue roasting for another 10-15 minutes until golden and tender.
  2. In a skillet, brown the ground beef over medium heat. Once fully cooked, add your taco seasoning and 2 tablespoons of water. Simmer on low for about 2-3 minutes to thicken.
  3. Divide the roasted sweet potatoes among serving bowls. Top each with seasoned beef, followed by pico de gallo, guacamole, and sour cream. Garnish as desired.
