Follow these easy steps to create your Sweet Potato Taco Bowls:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. Prepare Sweet Potatoes: In a large bowl, combine the diced sweet potatoes, olive oil, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss well.
3. Roast Sweet Potatoes: Spread the sweet potatoes on a baking sheet in a single layer. Roast in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized, tossing halfway through.
4. Sauté Vegetables: While the sweet potatoes are roasting, heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and bell pepper. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until softened.
5. Combine Ingredients: Stir in the black beans and corn with the sautéed vegetables and cook for an additional 5 minutes until heated through.
6. Prepare Bowls: Once the sweet potatoes are done, divide them evenly into bowls. Top with the black bean mixture.
7. Add Toppings: Add slices of avocado, a sprinkle of fresh cilantro, and any other desired toppings.
8. Serve with Lime: Serve each bowl with a lime wedge on the side for squeezing over the top.
