How to Make Ground Beef Hot Honey Bowl
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 400°F. This step is crucial for roasting the sweet potatoes perfectly.
Step 2: Roast the Sweet Potatoes
In a mixing bowl, toss diced sweet potatoes with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, cinnamon, salt, and pepper until well coated. Spread them evenly on a baking sheet. Roast in the oven for 40–45 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even cooking.
Step 3: Cook the Ground Beef
While the sweet potatoes are roasting, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add diced onion and cook until softened. Then add the ground beef to the skillet. Season with taco seasoning and cook until browned and flavorful.
Step 4: Assemble Your Bowls
In each bowl, layer roasted sweet potatoes followed by ground beef. Top with slices of avocado and a generous scoop of cottage cheese.
Step 5: Drizzle with Hot Honey
Finish off your bowls by drizzling hot honey over the top. You can also garnish with chopped cilantro, red pepper flakes, or a lime wedge if desired.
