Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 1/4 cup hot honey (adjust quantity to taste)
  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare Sweet Potatoes: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Peel and cube the sweet potatoes into 1-inch pieces. Toss them with olive oil, salt, and pepper, and spread out evenly on a baking sheet. Roast in the oven for 25-30 minutes or until tender and slightly caramelized, stirring halfway through for even cooking.
  2. Cook Ground Beef: While the sweet potatoes roast, heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef, seasoning with salt and pepper. Cook until browned and fully cooked through, breaking it apart with a spatula as it cooks, about 8-10 minutes. Drain any excess fat if necessary.
  3. Assemble the Bowl: Divide the roasted sweet potatoes and cooked ground beef between serving bowls. Top each bowl with a generous scoop of cottage cheese. Drizzle the hot honey over the entire bowl to add a sweet and spicy finish. Serve warm and enjoy immediately.
