Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss the sweet potatoes with 2 tablespoon olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, cinnamon, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet. Roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway until golden and tender.
  • While sweet potatoes roast, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook for about 5 minutes until soft and fragrant.
  • Add ground beef to the skillet, breaking it up with a spatula. Cook for 7-10 minutes until browned and no pink remains.
  • Stir in the taco seasoning and mix thoroughly. Turn off heat and prepare to plate.
  • Divide roasted sweet potatoes evenly into bowls, then top with seasoned ground beef mixture.
  • Drizzle 2 tablespoon hot honey over each bowl.
  • Add dollops of cottage cheese and top with avocado slices.
  • Serve immediately and enjoy the spicy-sweet comfort in every bite.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. For freezing, separate the beef and sweet potatoes and thaw before reheating. Add fresh toppings when serving.
