• 2 tablespoons Olive Oil (for coating sweet potatoes)
• ½ teaspoon Salt (or to taste)
• 1 pound Ground Beef (80% lean preferred)
• 2 tablespoons Taco Seasoning (store‑bought or homemade blend)
• ¼ cup Water (to help season the beef)
• 1 cup Cottage Cheese (full‑fat for creaminess)
• 1 large Avocado (sliced)
• 2 tablespoons Hot Honey (store‑bought or honey mixed with sriracha)
• 1 teaspoon Crushed Red Pepper Flakes (sprinkled on avocado)

Instructions

1. Prep Sweet Potatoes

   Peel the sweet potatoes and dice them into uniform ½‑inch cubes so they cook evenly.

2. Season Sweet Potatoes

   Place the diced sweet potatoes in a mixing bowl, drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle salt, and toss to coat evenly.

   Time: PT2M

3. Air‑Fry Sweet Potatoes

   Temperature: 400°F

4. Cook Ground Beef

   Time: PT8M

   Temperature: medium‑high

5. Assemble the Bowl
