What You'll Need
Ingredients
2 sweet potatoes, cubed (~400g)
1 lb lean ground beef (93/7)
2 cups cottage cheese (~480g)
1 large avocado, sliced
1½ tablespoons olive oil
2–3 tablespoons hot honey
Salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder to taste
Instructions
Roast the sweet potato. Preheat oven to 400°F. Toss the cubed sweet potato with olive oil, salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. Roast 25 minutes, until tender and caramelized at the edges.
Cook the beef. While the sweet potato roasts, brown the ground beef in a skillet over medium-high heat, seasoning with salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder, about 8–10 minutes.
Build the bowls. Divide the cottage cheese into 4 containers and drizzle with hot honey. Top with roasted sweet potato, beef, and sliced avocado. Refrigerate up to 4 days; add the avocado fresh at serving time.
Serve It With
Fresh herbs (parsley or dill) for brightness
Extra hot honey or chili flakes for heat
A squeeze of lemon to cut the richness
