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
Make Ahead: This is also a great salad to make ahead of time. Make everything up to 5 days ahead except for the avocado - that I'd wait until right before serving to cut up and add to the salad.
