Toss sweet potato cubes with avocado oil and seasonings until well coated. Spread on a parchment-lined sheet pan and bake for 20 minutes. Toss and return to the oven for another 15–20 minutes, until golden and slightly crispy. 2. *Cook the Taco Beef* In a skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef until browned and fully cooked. Drain if needed, then stir in seasonings to taste. 3. *Make the Hot Honey* In a small saucepan, gently warm honey with red pepper flakes over low heat (don’t boil). Remove from heat, stir in a splash of apple cider vinegar. Optional: Strain out pepper flakes for a milder version. Store in a small jar. 4. *Blend the Cilantro Cream Sauce* Add all sauce ingredients to a wide-mouth mason jar. Blend with an immersion blender until smooth and creamy. 5. *Assemble Your Bowls* A scoop of cottage cheese Roasted sweet potatoes Taco-seasoned ground beef Sliced avocado Drizzle with cilantro cream sauce and hot honey Optional: Add rice and shredded cheese to stretch the meal 💡 Tips These bowls are great for meal prep—store components separately and reheat as needed. Add greens like shredded romaine or baby spinach for extra crunch and nutrients.
