# How To Make:

01 - Preheat oven to 425°F. Toss sweet potato cubes with 1 tbsp olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 25–30 minutes, turning halfway, until golden and tender.
02 - Combine beef with 2 tbsp olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Mix to coat evenly.
03 - Heat a large skillet over high heat. Sear beef in batches for 2–3 minutes per side, cooking until just done. Set aside and keep warm.
04 - Whisk together Greek yogurt, lime juice, cilantro, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.
05 - Divide spinach or mixed greens among four bowls. Top with roasted sweet potatoes, seared beef, avocado slices, cherry tomatoes, and red onion.
06 - Drizzle with yogurt-lime dressing and serve immediately.

# Top Suggestions:

01 -
  • Everything can be prepped ahead and assembled in minutes when hunger strikes.
  • The yogurt-lime dressing is tangy enough to wake up your taste buds without overpowering the beef.
  • Its one of those bowls that looks impressive but doesnt ask much of you.
02 -
  • Dont skip preheating the oven fully, lukewarm sweet potatoes turn mushy instead of caramelized.
  • Slice the beef against the grain or it will chew like rubber, even if its cooked perfectly.
  • If your avocado is too firm, leave it out and add it to tomorrows leftovers instead.
03 -
  • Let the beef rest for a few minutes after searing so the juices redistribute, slicing it too soon makes it dry.
  • Roast extra sweet potatoes and keep them in the fridge, they make breakfast bowls and grain salads infinitely better.
  • If the dressing feels too thick, thin it with a teaspoon of water at a time until it drizzles easily.
