Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Roast the Sweet Potatoes: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss cubed sweet potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 25 minutes, stirring halfway through.
  2. Brown the Ground Beef: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef, breaking apart as it cooks. Season with cumin, salt, and pepper. Cook for 7-10 minutes until browned and crispy.
  3. Add the Hot Honey: Reduce heat to low. Drizzle cooked beef with hot honey, stir to coat, and warm for 1-2 minutes until glazed.
  4. Assemble Your Bowls: Start with a base of warm rice in each bowl. Top with hot honey-glazed beef, crispy sweet potatoes, avocado slices, and fresh cilantro.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Drizzle more hot honey over the bowls before serving. Serve warm, pairing with a side salad or tortilla chips for added freshness.
