Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 medium russet potatoes, diced into 1/2-inch cubes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 pound ground beef or 1 can (15 oz) black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 packet taco seasoning or an equal amount of homemade seasoning
  • ~1/2 cup water
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar or Mexican blend cheese
  • 1/2 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup salsa
  • 1/4 cup sliced green onions
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • Optional toppings: diced tomatoes, corn, sliced jalapeños, sliced olives

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Toss the diced potatoes with olive oil, chili powder, smoked paprika, garlic powder, cumin, and salt and pepper.
  3. Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet.
  4. Roast for 25 to 30 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  5. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the ground beef until browned or warm the black beans.
  6. Stir in the taco seasoning and about 1/2 cup water; simmer until thickened.
  7. Divide the potatoes into bowls and sprinkle with shredded cheese so it melts.
  8. Top with the seasoned beef or beans and desired toppings.
  9. Finish with a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt and salsa.

Notes

For a milder flavor, reduce chili powder. You can also swap sour cream for Greek yogurt for extra creaminess.
