Ingredients
1.5 lb sweet potatoes (about 2 large)
1 lb 93/7 lean ground beef
1 tbsp tomato paste
-
1 packet taco seasoning

2 cups 2% low fat cottage cheese

Hot Calabrian Honey, or

Directions
Preheat oven and prep pan:
Preheat oven to 425F and line a half baking sheet with parchment.
Bake sweet potatoes:
The sweet potatoes will take the longest, so get those going first. Peel and wash them, then cut into ~1/4″ cubes. Add to the baking sheet, lightly spray with oil and season with salt, pepper, and a little cinnamon. Bake for 30 minutes, flipping halfway (I season again at halfway).
Make the taco beef:
While potatoes are baking, cook the ground beef in a pan on medium high, breaking apart into small pieces, until fully browned (~5 min). Drain any excess liquid. Add tomato paste, taco seasoning and a splash of water and cook for just 1-2 more minutes, stirring to combine. Remove from heat.
Build your bowl:
Add sweet potatoes, taco beef, cottage cheese, and fresh avocado to your bowl and finish with a drizzle of either The Flavorsmith’s Hot Calabrian Honey, Creole Hot Honey Mustard, or Hot Maple Syrup. Enjoy!
