Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Loaded Potato Taco Bowl
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Dice the Russet potatoes into even cubes for uniform cooking. Toss with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper until coated. Spread on a baking sheet.
  2. Roast the potatoes in the oven for about 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway through for crispiness. They should be golden and fork-tender.
  3. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef or turkey, cooking for 5–7 minutes until browned. Drain excess fat.
  4. Add chili powder, cumin, and diced red onion to the skillet. Cook for 3–4 minutes until onions are translucent.
  5. Stir in black beans and corn, cooking for 2–3 minutes until heated through. Adjust seasoning if desired.
  6. Assemble your Loaded Potato Taco Bowl with a base of crispy potatoes, meat mixture, and your favorite toppings.
  7. Finish with a squeeze of lime juice and a dollop of sour cream. Serve warm and enjoy the fiesta of flavors!
