Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Sweet Potato Taco Bowl
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Peel and chop sweet potatoes into cubes and toss in olive oil, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet.
  2. Roast the sweet potatoes in the oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through for even browning until golden and tender.
  3. In a skillet, cook ground beef over medium heat until browned. Add taco seasoning and a splash of water, simmering for 2-3 minutes.
  4. Prepare pico de gallo by mixing tomatoes, onion, cilantro, jalapeño, and lime juice. Let it sit for 10 minutes to blend flavors.
  5. Assemble the bowl with a layer of crispy sweet potatoes, taco beef, pico de gallo, guacamole, and sour cream.
  6. Garnish with optional toppings like crumbled cheese, lime wedges, or tortilla chips. Enjoy your Sweet Potato Taco Bowl!
