Method
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment for easier cleanup.
- Toss the cubed sweet potato with olive oil, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper until each piece is coated. Spread in a single layer on the baking sheet.
Roasting Sweet Potatoes
- Roast for 15 minutes. Flip the potatoes and roast another 10–15 minutes until edges are golden and centers are tender when pierced with a fork.
Cooking the Protein
- While the potatoes roast, heat a skillet over medium. Add the ground beef and break it up with a spatula. Cook until no pink remains and edges are browned — about 6–8 minutes.
- Stir in the taco seasoning and 2 tablespoons of water. Reduce heat and simmer 2–3 minutes until the sauce clings to the meat.
Assembly
- Divide roasted sweet potatoes among bowls. Top with the seasoned beef, pico de gallo, guacamole, and sour cream. Garnish with cilantro, lime wedges, or crumbled cheese if desired.

Notes
For a milder spice, use ½ tbsp of taco seasoning. If using lentils, pre-cook them and drain well; add a splash of water with the seasoning for flavor absorption.
