Serves 4

Seasoned ground beef and crispy air-fried sweet potatoes meet a bright pineapple salsa for a fresh, flavor-packed bowl that comes together fast.

Ingredients

1 lb lean ground beef

1 package taco seasoning (of choice)

500 g sweet potatoes (about 2 medium or 1 large)

1 cup fresh pineapple (diced)

1 mini cucumber (diced)

1 tomato (diced)

½ lime (juiced)

½ cup sweet corn

⅓ cup cooked edamame

½ tsp salt

½ tsp pepper

½ tsp garlic powder

½ tsp onion powder

½ tsp smoked paprika

¼ tsp cumin

tzatziki sauce (to serve)

pickled onions (to serve)

lime juice (to serve)

Instructions

Wash then chop the sweet potatoes into 1/2 inch cubes. Toss them with avocado oil and the listed seasonings. Air fry at 400F for 8-10 minutes, tossing halfway through.

In a large skillet, preheat to medium heat and spray with oil. Once hot, add the beef and press down to flatten it. Allow the beef to cook for 2-3 minutes untouched, then flip it and break it up.

Once the beef is almost fully cooked, add your taco seasoning packet and 3/4 cup water. Mix and cook until the sauce has thickened.

In a bowl, combine all chopped veggies and juice of 1/2 a lime. Add some salt and pepper and taste to adjust seasoning.

Serve the sweet potatoes and beef with a drizzle of tzatziki sauce (mine was watered down), pickled red onions, and additional lime slices.
