Sweet Potato Burger Bowl (serves 2-4)
DIETARY: Traditional, Gluten-free
TOTAL TIME: 45 minutes
1 pound sweet potatoes, cut into 1-inch cubes
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
½ teaspoon sea salt
1 pound ground beef
1 tablespoon olive oil
¾ teaspoon garlic powder
¾ teaspoon paprika
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
1 romaine heart, shredded (about 4 cups)
1½ cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
2 medium beefsteak tomatoes, chopped
2 medium avocado, peeled, pitted, and chopped
1 cup sliced dill pickles
½ small white onion, thinly julienned
½-1 cup prepared or homemade burger sauce
- Preheat the oven to 375° F. Toss the sweet potatoes with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and sea salt. Spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet and roast for 35 minutes, or until tender and lightly browned.
- While the sweet potatoes are roasting, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until no longer pink. Stir in the garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper, and cook for 2–3 minutes more. Drain any excess fat if needed.
- Divide the shredded romaine between bowls. Top with the seasoned beef, roasted sweet potatoes, cheddar cheese, tomatoes, avocado, pickles, and onion.
- Drizzle each salad with a ¼ cup of the sauce, serving any extra on the side.
