Loaded Sweet Potato Fries + Avocado Lime Crema

Ingredients

  • 1.5 lbs sweet potatoes washed and cut lengthwise into 1/4-inch wide fries as shown
  • 3 Tbsps avocado oil or olive oil, divided
  • sea salt and fresh ground black pepper to your taste
  • 1 lb. ground beef grass feed if possible
  • 2 fresh garlic cloves minced or pressed
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 2 Tbsps organic tomato paste

For the Avocado Lime Crema:

  • 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 ripe avocado
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • juice of 1 fresh lime
  • 1 fresh garlic clove minced

Optional Topping Ideas: chopped cherry or Roma tomatoes, fresh cilantro or parsley leaves, sliced jalapeño, shredded cheese etc.

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees f. and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
  • Divide fries between the two baking sheets, and sprinkle with sea salt, pepper, and drizzle about 2 tablespoons of oil. I also added an additional teeny-tiny pinch of the spices listed in the ingredients (that go into the meat) here, onto my fries...this is optional, but I really like the extra FLAVOR!
  • Using your hands gently toss to coat well, then arrange them in a single layer so that they can crisp up properly.
  • Bake until the edges are crisp and golden brown, about 30 minutes, flipping once during baking time.
  • Meanwhile, heat the remaining oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Add your ground beef, garlic, and all seasonings, cook and stir to break up the meat, about 5-7 minutes until cooked through. Drain the excess fat if needed, then stir in the tomato paste.

To make the avocado lime crema:

  • Add all the ingredients into your food processor or blender and pulse until well combined and creamy.
  • Layer the sweet potato fries on a large platter and sprinkle with beef, then add toppings of choice.
  • Drizzle everything with avocado lime crema and enjoy!
