Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Peel and slice sweet potato into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Toss with 1 tsp olive oil, salt, and 1/4 tsp cumin. Arrange on a baking sheet and roast for 20 minutes until edges are crisp and centers tender.
  2. Step 2: Heat 1 tsp olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add ground turkey, breaking it into small pieces with a spoon. Cook for 5-6 minutes until no longer pink, then stir in cumin, chili powder, and 1/4 tsp salt.
  3. Step 3: Stir corn, diced tomatoes, and lime juice into the turkey mixture. Simmer for 3 minutes until heated through and flavors meld. Remove from heat.
  4. Step 4: Serve turkey mixture over roasted sweet potato rounds, topped with diced avocado. Let kids assemble their own bowls by placing a sweet potato round on a plate, adding turkey mixture, and sprinkling with extra avocado if desired.
