Ingredients
For the Potatoes:
- 3 medium Yukon gold potatoes, diced into small cubes
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
- Salt and black pepper to taste
For the Special Sauce:
- 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt (or light mayo)
- 2 tbsp ketchup
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
For the Bowl Assembly:
- 2 roma tomatoes, diced
- 2 cups chopped romaine lettuce
- 1 avocado, sliced
For the Beef:
- 1 lb lean ground beef (90/10)
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss the diced potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 20–25 minutes until crispy and golden.
2. While potatoes are roasting, heat a skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef and season with onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook until browned and fully cooked, about 7–8 minutes.
3. In a small bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, ketchup, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, and smoked paprika until smooth to make the special sauce.
4. To assemble, divide roasted potatoes among four bowls. Top each with cooked ground beef, chopped romaine, diced tomatoes, and avocado slices.
5. Drizzle each bowl with special sauce and serve immediately.
Notes
Roast a big batch of potatoes ahead of time and re-crisp them in an air fryer for quick meal prep.
Store the cooked beef and sauce separately in the fridge and assemble bowls fresh as needed.
Swap romaine with spinach or mixed greens for variety.
Add shredded cheese or pickles to make it more like a classic burger bowl.
