2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp cumin
½ tsp smoked paprika
Salt and pepper to taste
1 cup cooked rice (white, brown, or quinoa)
1 (15 oz) can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 cup corn (fresh, canned, or frozen)
1 cup shredded red cabbage or romaine
1 avocado, sliced or cubed
½ cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
1 tsp adobo sauce
Juice of 1 lime (plus wedges for serving)
Chopped cilantro (optional)
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss sweet potatoes with oil, chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway.
While potatoes roast, cook rice and set aside.
Warm black beans in a pan with a splash of water and a pinch of cumin. Simmer for 5–7 minutes.
In a bowl, mix sour cream, lime juice, adobo sauce, and a pinch of salt to make chipotle crema.
Assemble bowls with rice, sweet potatoes, beans, corn, cabbage, avocado, and drizzle with crema. Top with cilantro and lime wedges.
For vegan: use plant-based yogurt or cashew crema.
Great for meal prep — store components separately and assemble when ready.
Add grilled protein or hot sauce for variation.
