Ingredients
  

  • 1 small-medium Sweet Potato (per person )
  • Avocado Oil (or fat of choice)
  • Sea Salt
  • 1-2 lb Ground Beef (or your ground meat of choice)
  • 1-2 tbsp Taco Seasoning (I like Primal Palate's (if on AIP, use an AIP-friendly taco seasoning mix))

For the Sauce:

  • 1/4 cup Dairy-free Yogurt or Mayo ((use coconut or tigernut milk yogurt for AIP))
  • 1 Lime (Juice of)
  • Pinch Sea Salt

Toppings of Choice:

  • Cherry Tomatoes (omit for AIP)
  • Cilantro
  • Red Onions
  • Avocados
  • Olives

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 425 F. Cut the sweet potatoes into wedges, toss with avocado oil and sea salt and then place on a parchment-lined sheet pan. Bake for 35 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, prepare desired toppings and mix up the sauce.
  • Brown the ground beef in a skillet. Add the taco seasoning and a few tablespoons of water and simmer until the sweet potatoes are done.
  • Assemble by putting several sweet potato wedges on a plate, then adding a portion of ground beef, and then adding your toppings and sauce.

Notes

To make AIP-friendly: Omit the tomatoes, use an AIP-friendly taco seasoning, and either use a compliant yogurt or use plain coconut milk or tigernut milk for the sauce
