Instructions
 

Main Instructions

  • Preheat Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  • Prepare Potatoes: Cut the russet potatoes into bite-sized cubes. Toss them in a bowl with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper until well-coated.
  • Bake Potatoes: Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside.
  • Brown Meat: While the potatoes are baking, heat a skillet over medium heat. Add your ground beef or turkey, cooking until browned. Drain any excess fat from the skillet.
  • Add Spices: Incorporate chili powder, cumin, and diced red onion into the meat mixture. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the onion softens, and the spices become fragrant.
  • Mix in Beans and Corn: Fold in black beans and corn kernels. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until heated through.
  • Assemble Bowls: Start with a generous layer of crispy roasted potatoes as your base. Top with the savory meat mixture, followed by shredded cheddar cheese, halved cherry tomatoes, diced avocado, and fresh cilantro.
  • Serve: Complete your Loaded Potato Taco Bowl with lime wedges and a dollop of sour cream.

Notes

Optional: Garnish with pickled red onions for an extra flavor kick!
