How to Make Sweet Potato Taco Bowl

  • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  • Toss cubed sweet potatoes with olive oil, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper, then spread them on a baking sheet.
  • Roast the sweet potatoes for 15 minutes, flip them, then roast for an additional 10-15 minutes until golden and tender.
  • While the sweet potatoes roast, heat a skillet over medium heat, add ground beef and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in taco seasoning and 2 tablespoons of water, simmer for 2-3 minutes.
  • Prepare your toppings by chopping pico de gallo ingredients and mashing avocados for guacamole.
  • Assemble the bowl by layering roasted sweet potatoes, seasoned protein, pico de gallo, guacamole, and sour cream.
  • Garnish with fresh cilantro and lime wedges, and serve with tortilla chips.
