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).
- On a baking sheet, toss the cubed sweet potatoes with olive oil, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper until well-coated.
- Roast the sweet potatoes in the oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized.
- While the sweet potatoes roast, heat a skillet over medium heat and add your ground beef (or any chosen protein) to the pan. Cook it until browned, about 5-7 minutes.
- Stir in your taco seasoning and a splash of water. Cook until well-combined, about 2-3 minutes.
- In a large serving bowl, layer in your roasted sweet potatoes first, then the seasoned meat. Top with pico de gallo, guacamole, and sour cream.
- Add optional toppings such as crumbled cheese, lime wedges, or tortilla chips.
Notes
For extra flavor, marinate your protein overnight with taco seasoning. Store leftovers separately for optimal freshness.
