Loaded Potato Taco Bowl


Description

A delightful and comforting bowl with roasted potatoes, spiced ground meat, and fresh toppings for a crowd-pleasing meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 medium russet potatoes, peeled and diced into 3/4-inch 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, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup corn kernels
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 medium avocado, diced
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • Lime wedges (for serving)
  • Sour cream (for topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment or lightly oil it.
  2. Spread the diced potatoes in a single layer on the baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
  3. Roast the potatoes for 30–35 minutes, flipping at the 15-minute mark until the edges are golden and crisp.
  4. While the potatoes roast, heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef or turkey, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, and cook for 7–8 minutes until browned.
  5. Add the chili powder, cumin, and chopped red onion to the meat. Cook for 4–5 minutes until the onion softens.
  6. Stir in the drained black beans and corn. Cook for an additional 3–4 minutes until warmed through.
  7. Divide the crispy potatoes among 4 bowls. Top each with the meat-and-bean mixture, then sprinkle with cheddar cheese.
  8. Finish each bowl with cherry tomatoes, diced avocado, and chopped cilantro. Serve with lime wedges and a dollop of sour cream.

Notes

For a vegetarian option, substitute meat with crumbled tempeh or lentils.
