Ingredientes

1 tablespoon olive oil

1/2 large yellow onion (diced)

1 pound lean ground beef (93/7)

1/4 cup chicken broth (or water)

1 (1-ounce) packet taco seasoning (see note 1)

2 tablespoons tomato paste

1-1/2 teaspoons minced garlic

6 cups diced sweet potatoes (2 large potatoes)

2 tablespoons olive oil

1-1/2 teaspoon paprika

1 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and pepper

White rice

Cilantro-lime sauce (optional, for serving)

Toppings as desired (see note 2)

Instruções

Make Rice

Rice: If making rice, start here. Follow the white or cilantro-lime rice recipe linked above for detailed instructions.

Prepare Sweet Potatoes

Sweet Potatoes: Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Add 1/2-inch peeled and dice sweet potatoes to a large sheet pan. Drizzle with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper (I use 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper). Toss well to coat. Spread in a single layer and roast until tender, about 30 minutes, flipping every 10 minutes.

Cook Beef

Beef: Heat olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Add diced onion and sauté for 3-5 minutes, or until golden. Push onions to the edges of the skillet. Add ground beef to the center, sear, crumble, and brown the beef, cooking until the liquid is absorbed into the beef. Stir in chicken broth or water, taco seasoning, tomato paste, and minced garlic. Cook until fragrant (1-2 minutes), then remove from heat. Optional: Stir through well-drained black beans to warm.

Assemble Bowls

Assemble: Divide cooked rice evenly among 4 bowls. Top each bowl with roasted sweet potatoes and the prepared beef mixture. Add your favorite toppings (see note 2). Drizzle with cilantro-lime sauce if desired. Enjoy!

Notas

Note 1: Or make your own using this taco seasoning recipe!

Note 2: Toppings: 1 can black beans (drain, rinse, and toss with beef to warm through), quick pickled red onions, lime, and avocado are my favorite burrito bowl additions. Other ideas: freshly shredded cheese, pico de Gallo or diced tomatoes, corn, sautéed peppers, jalapenos, sour cream, guacamole, etc.

Nutrition: The nutrition facts only include the beef and sweet potatoes, and not the optional toppings and rice.

Storage: Store leftovers in separate containers: beef, sweet potatoes, rice, and toppings. Reheat the beef, rice, and sweet potatoes in a skillet or the microwave. Add toppings like avocado and sauce right before eating.
