- Spread them out on a baking sheet and roast for 25–30 minutes until they are tender and golden.
Cooking
- While the sweet potatoes are roasting, heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook until it is browned. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Assembly

Notes
To store leftover Power Bowl, place it in an airtight container and keep it in the refrigerator. Best eaten within 3 to 4 days. Store the avocado separately to keep it fresh. Consider adding spices like cumin or chili powder to the ground beef for extra flavor. Experiment with different toppings such as feta cheese, chopped cilantro, or hot sauce.
