Sweet Potato Taco Bowls are the perfect meatless Monday meal to make your family! They’re full of delicious flavor and are a healthier option to a lot of other meal ideas! You will be pleasantly surprised by this amazing dish!
During our last thirty days of clean eating, I’ve used sweet potatoes in a ton of our recipes. I thought for sure that I would miss the white potatoes that I loaded with cheese and garlic but to be honest I’ve found a new appreciation for sweet potatoes and try to find ways to use them in our meals!
Over the last thirty days, we’ve made everything from Sweet Potato Hash with eggs on top to a Paleo Blueberry Crisp that even my boys liked!
