Ingredients
Scale
For the Sweet Potatoes:
- 2 small (or 1 large) sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp paprika
- 1/4 tsp salt
- Olive oil spray
For the Bowls:
- 1/2 pound ground beef
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1/4 tsp chili flakes
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 1 avocado, cubed
- 1/2 tbsp hot honey
- Chili flakes, to taste
Instructions
- Prepare The Sweet Potatoes: Peel and cut the sweet potatoes into small cubes. Season them with garlic powder, paprika, and salt. Lightly spray the cubes with olive oil. Place them in an air fryer and cook at 375°F (190°C) for about 15 minutes or until they turn golden and become tender.
- Cook The Ground Beef: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef along with onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, chili flakes, and salt. Stir occasionally, cooking the beef until fully cooked through and lightly browned, ensuring the spices infuse the meat evenly.
- Assemble The Bowls: Divide the cooked sweet potatoes and ground beef evenly between two bowls. Add half of the cubed avocado into each bowl. Top each bowl with 1/2 cup of cottage cheese. Drizzle with hot honey and sprinkle additional chili flakes on top according to your spice preference.
Notes
- Using an air fryer gives the sweet potatoes a crispy exterior while keeping them tender inside.
- You can adjust the chili flakes and hot honey amount to suit your desired spice and sweetness levels.
- This dish is balanced with protein, healthy fats from avocado, and complex carbs from sweet potatoes.
- Substitute ground turkey or plant-based beef for a different protein option.
- Serve immediately for the best texture; leftovers can be refrigerated and reheated.
