Description
Delicious loaded taco bowls topped with roasted potatoes, seasoned meat, and fresh toppings.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 medium russet potatoes, peeled and diced into bite-sized pieces
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 1 pound ground beef or turkey
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 small red onion, chopped
- 15 ounces black beans (1 can, drained and rinsed)
- 1 cup corn kernels (fresh, canned, or frozen)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 avocado, diced
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- Lime wedges for serving
- Sour cream for topping
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Spread the diced potatoes on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat the potatoes evenly.
- Bake the potatoes in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until crispy and golden brown, flipping them halfway through the baking time.
- Meanwhile, in a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef or turkey until browned. Drain any excess fat.
- Add chili powder, cumin, and chopped red onion to the skillet. Stir and cook for 5 minutes or until the onion becomes soft and translucent.
- Mix in the black beans and corn, and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until heated through. Adjust seasonings if necessary.
- To assemble the taco bowls, divide the roasted potatoes into serving bowls. Top with the meat mixture, ensuring each bowl is filled generously.
- Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the top of each bowl and add cherry tomatoes, diced avocado, and fresh cilantro.
- Serve with lime wedges and a dollop of sour cream on top.
Notes
- Adjust the toppings to your preference.
- For a vegetarian version, substitute ground meat with additional beans or lentils.
