Loaded Potato Taco Bowl

A fun and hearty dish that combines loaded potatoes and tacos, perfect for family dinners or casual get-togethers.

  • Total Time: 50 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 medium russet potatoes (peeled and diced into 3/4-inch pieces)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and black pepper (to taste)
  • 1 pound ground beef or turkey (93/7 lean recommended)
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 small red onion (chopped)
  • 15 ounces black beans (1 can, drained and rinsed)
  • 1 cup corn kernels (fresh, canned, or frozen)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes (halved)
  • 1 medium avocado (diced)
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro (loosely packed and chopped)
  • Lime wedges (for serving)
  • Sour cream (for topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Spread the diced potatoes on a large baking sheet in a single layer without crowding. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat them evenly.
  3. Bake the potatoes for 30-35 minutes, flipping at the 15-minute mark until golden brown and crispy on the edges.
  4. While the potatoes roast, heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef or turkey and cook for 7-8 minutes until fully browned.
  5. Add the chili powder, cumin, and chopped red onion to the meat. Stir and cook for 5 minutes until the onion softens.
  6. Stir in the black beans and corn, cooking for an additional 3-4 minutes until heated through. Adjust seasonings as needed.
  7. Divide the potatoes into 4 bowls, topping each with the meat mixture and cheese, letting sit for 30 seconds to melt.
  8. Add cherry tomatoes, avocado, and cilantro on top. Serve with lime wedges and sour cream.

Notes

Cut the potatoes into similar sizes for even cooking. Customize toppings with jalapeños, olives, or green onions.
