These colorful sweet potato taco bowls use a homemade taco seasoning so you can feel good about feeding them to your family.

Whenever I hear “meatless” I immediately think “not filling,” but that is FAR from the case with these meatless Sweet Potato Taco Bowls. They’re loaded with protein, fiber, and veggies – and will keep you feeling full all day (or all night) long.

Whether you’re making them for your family (they’re a hit with big kids and little ones alike), or using them to meal prep your lunches all week long, these tasty deconstructed taco bowls are a go-to around here.

Diced sweet potatoes seasoned and roasted on a baking sheet with a black spatula.

How to Make Sweet Potato Taco Bowls

Preheat oven to 400℉.
In a small bowl, mix together taco seasoning ingredients.
With your hands, toss sweet potatoes and olive oil with the seasonings on a foil-lined baking sheet.
Bake sweet potatoes for 15 minutes, then remove from the oven and toss again.
Return to the sweet potatoes to the oven for another 10-15 minutes, until sweet potatoes are tender.
When the potatoes are finished cooking, assemble the bowls by placing an even amount of sweet potatoes, beans, corn, lettuce, tomatoes, avocado and cilantro in each bowl.
Drizzle with favorite salad dressing.

Recipe Notes

While you could easily use a packet of seasoning for your potatoes in this recipe, we LOVE to use the homemade taco seasoning from these taco baked fries. All you need is chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, paprika, cumin, salt and pepper. You could easily double or triple the batch to use for future recipes, too.
Salad dressing is not included in the nutritional facts for this recipe.
