I tried the viral hot honey ground beef bowls

Ingredients

• 2 large Sweet Potatoes (peeled and diced into ½‑inch cubes)
• 2 Tbsp Olive Oil (for tossing sweet potatoes)
• 1 tsp Salt (plus extra pinch for beef seasoning)
• ½ tsp Black Pepper (freshly ground)
• ¼ tsp Ground Cinnamon (adds subtle sweetness to potatoes)
• 1 lb Ground Beef (80% lean, preferably grass‑fed)
• 2 Tbsp Tomato Paste (adds depth of flavor)
• 2 Tbsp Taco Seasoning (store‑bought or homemade blend)
• ¼ cup Water (helps create a saucy coating for the beef)
• 1 cup Cottage Cheese (low‑fat, crumbled)
• 1 large Avocado (peeled, pitted and sliced)
• 3 Tbsp Hot Honey (store‑bought or homemade by heating honey with chili flakes)
• 2 cups Romaine Lettuce (shredded)
• 1 medium Tomato (diced)

Instructions

1. Preheat Oven

   Set the oven to 425°F (220°C) and let it preheat while you prepare the sweet potatoes.

   Time: PT10M

   Temperature: 425°F

2. Season Sweet Potatoes

   Peel and dice the sweet potatoes into ½‑inch cubes. In a mixing bowl, toss them with olive oil, 1 tsp salt, ½ tsp black pepper, and ¼ tsp ground cinnamon until evenly coated.

   Time: PT10M

3. Roast Sweet Potatoes

   Spread the seasoned cubes in a single layer on a parchment‑lined baking sheet. Roast for 25 minutes, flipping halfway through (after about 12 minutes) to ensure both sides brown.

   Time: PT25M

   Temperature: 425°F

4. Cook Taco‑Seasoned Ground Beef

   While the potatoes roast, heat a skillet over medium‑high heat. Add the ground beef, breaking it up with a spatula, and cook until browned, about 5 minutes. Stir in 2 Tbsp tomato paste, 2 Tbsp taco seasoning, and ¼ cup water. Reduce heat to medium and simmer for another 5 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the meat.

   Time: PT10M

5. Prepare Fresh Toppings

   Dice the avocado, shred the lettuce, dice the tomato, and crumble the cottage cheese. Set each topping in separate small bowls for easy assembly.

   Time: PT5M

6. Assemble the Bowls

   Divide the roasted sweet potatoes and taco beef evenly among four serving bowls. Top each with a scoop of cottage cheese, avocado slices, shredded lettuce, and diced tomato. Drizzle ¾ Tbsp hot honey over each bowl and finish with a pinch of extra salt if desired.

   Time: PT5M

7. Serve

   Enjoy the bowls warm. They can be stored for later meals as described below.
