Ingredients
Scale
Taco Meat
- 1 lb Lean Ground Beef
- 1/2 tsp Creole Seasoning
- 1/2 tsp Cumin
- 1/4 tsp Ground Coriander
- 1/4 tsp Onion Powder
- 1/4 tsp Garlic Powder
- 1/4 tsp Crushed Red Pepper
- 1 tbsp Taco Seasoning, or to taste
- Salt & Pepper, to taste
Potatoes
- 5–6 Medium-Large sized Potatoes (Yukon Gold recommended)
- 1 tbsp Olive Oil
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Oregano
- 1 tsp Garlic Powder
- 1.5 tsp Paprika
Instructions
- Prepare the Potatoes: Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Wash and dice the potatoes into bite-sized pieces. In a large bowl, toss the potatoes with olive oil, salt, oregano, garlic powder, and paprika until evenly coated.
- Roast the Potatoes: Spread the seasoned potatoes evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or foil. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy, flipping halfway through for even cooking.
- Cook the Taco Meat: While potatoes roast, heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up into crumbles with a spatula. Drain excess fat if needed.
- Season the Meat: Add creole seasoning, cumin, ground coriander, onion powder, garlic powder, crushed red pepper, taco seasoning, salt, and pepper to the meat. Stir well and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to blend the flavors fully.
- Assemble the Taco Bowls: Once potatoes are roasted and meat is seasoned, serve the meat on top of the roasted potatoes in bowls. Add your favorite taco toppings such as shredded cheese, lettuce, sour cream, salsa, or avocado if desired.
Notes
- You can substitute Yukon Gold potatoes with Russet or red potatoes based on preference.
- Adjust the amount of crushed red pepper if you prefer less or more heat.
- For a lighter version, use ground turkey or chicken instead of beef.
- These taco bowls can be made gluten-free as long as taco seasoning is gluten-free.
- Leftover bowls can be refrigerated and reheated in the oven or microwave.
