Prepare the Sweet Potatoes
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).

- Coat the cubed sweet potatoes in olive oil and sprinkle with salt.
- Spread the sweet potatoes on a baking sheet and roast until edges darken and caramelize, taking about 20 minutes.
Cook the Beef
- In a large pan, brown the ground beef over medium heat, breaking it apart as it cooks.
- If excess grease accumulates, drain some off.
- Sprinkle the taco seasoning over the beef, along with a bit of water, and let it simmer until well combined.
Assemble the Bowl

Notes
Store cooked sweet potatoes and beef separately in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat before assembling for fresh meals. Add toppings right before serving to maintain texture.
