Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Street Corn & Beef Bowls
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Cube the sweet potatoes and toss them in avocado oil, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated. Spread them out on a lined baking sheet and roast for 25-35 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  2. In a large skillet, heat over medium, adding the lean ground beef. Brown the beef for about 6-8 minutes until fully cooked, then drain excess grease and stir in the taco seasoning with a splash of water, letting it simmer for 2-3 minutes.
  3. Mix the drained canned corn, cottage cheese, fresh lime juice, jalapeño, cilantro, and diced avocado in a bowl until creamy.
  4. Layer your bowls starting with roasted sweet potatoes as the base, followed by the taco-seasoned beef and a scoop of creamy corn salsa.
  5. Garnish with Tajín and drizzle with hot honey. Serve immediately.
