Description

“Ground Beef Sweet Potato Power Bowl is a wholesome, nutrient-packed meal featuring roasted sweet potatoes, seasoned ground beef, sautéed bell peppers, and a creamy Greek yogurt topping. This balanced dish is perfect for lunch, dinner, or meal prep, providing protein, fiber, and vibrant flavors.”


Ingredients

For the Bowl:

1 pound ground beef

2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon chili powder

½ teaspoon cumin

½ teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and pepper to taste

1 cup diced bell peppers (any color)

½ cup Greek yogurt

Fresh cilantro, chopped (optional)


Instructions

  • Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

  • Roast the Sweet Potatoes: Toss cubed sweet potatoes with olive oil, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Spread evenly on a baking sheet and roast for 25 minutes, flipping halfway through.

  • Cook the Ground Beef: While sweet potatoes are roasting, heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef and season with garlic powder, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Cook for 8–10 minutes, breaking up the beef as it cooks. Drain any excess fat if needed.

  • Sauté the Bell Peppers: In the same skillet, sauté diced bell peppers for 5–6 minutes until tender.

  • Assemble the Bowl: Once cooked, place roasted sweet potatoes, ground beef, and sautéed bell peppers into each bowl.

  • Top and Serve: Top with Greek yogurt and chopped cilantro. Serve warm.

Notes

Add More Veggies: Try adding zucchini, spinach, or roasted carrots for more nutrients.

Toppings: Add avocado, hot sauce, or pickled onions for extra flavor.

Swap the Meat: Use ground turkey, chicken, or a plant-based protein like lentils or crumbled tempeh for variation.

Vegan Version: Swap Greek yogurt for a plant-based yogurt alternative and replace ground beef with legumes or tofu.
