Ingredients
For the Sweet Potatoes:
2 small (or 1 large) sweet potato, peeled and cubed
½ tsp garlic powder
½ tsp paprika
¼ tsp salt
Olive oil spray
For the Bowls:
½ pound ground beef
1 tsp onion powder
½ tsp garlic powder
1 tsp paprika
¼ tsp chili flakes
½ tsp salt
1 cup cottage cheese
1 avocado, cubed
½ tbsp hot honey
Extra chili flakes, to taste
Instructions
Prepare Sweet Potatoes: Toss cubed sweet potatoes with garlic powder, paprika, and salt. Lightly spray with olive oil. Cook in an air fryer at 375°F (190°C) for 15 minutes, until golden and tender.
Cook Ground Beef: In a skillet over medium-high heat, cook ground beef with onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, chili flakes, and salt until browned and fully cooked.
Assemble Bowls: Divide sweet potatoes and beef between two bowls. Add cubed avocado, top each bowl with ½ cup cottage cheese, drizzle with hot honey, and finish with extra chili flakes to taste.
Notes
Swap ground beef with turkey or chicken for a leaner option.
Use Greek yogurt instead of cottage cheese if preferred.
Add leafy greens (like spinach or arugula) for extra fiber.
Great for meal prep—store components separately and assemble before serving.
