Preparation
1
Cook sweet potato

  • Before starting, preheat the oven to 450°F. Wash and dry all produce.
  • Cut sweet potatoes into 1/2-inch pieces. To a parchment-lined baking sheet, add sweet potatoes and 1 tbsp oil. (NOTE: For 4 servings, use 2 baking sheets, with 1 tbsp oil per sheet.) Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat.
  • Roast in the middle of the oven for 16-18 min, stirring halfway through, until tender and golden. (NOTE: For 4 servings, roast in the middle and bottom of the oven, switching baking sheet positions halfway through.)

2
Prep

  • Peel, then cut onion into 1/4-inch slices.
  • Core, then cut pepper into 1/4-inch slices.
  • Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
  • Thinly slice green onion.
  • Zest, then juice half the lime. Cut remaining lime into wedges.

3
Cook veggies

  • Heat a large non-stick pan, over medium-high. When the pan is hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, peppers, onions, garlic and half the Southwest Spice Blend. Cook for 5-6 min, stirring often, until tender. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Transfer to plate.
  • Carefully wipe the pan clean.

4
Cook beef

  • Reheat the same pan over medium-high. When hot, add beef and remaining Southwest Spice Blend to the dry pan. Cook for 3-5 min, breaking up beef into smaller pieces, until no pink remains.** Carefully drain and discard excess fat. 
  • Add tomato sauce base. Cook for 1-2 min, stirring often, until fragrant. Season with salt and pepper.

5
Finish skillet

  • To the pan with beef, add 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) water, veggies, half the lime zest, half the lime juice and sweet potatoes. Stir to combine.
  • Cook for 3-4 min, stirring occasionally, until thickened. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Add cheese. Cover the pan with a lid for 1-2 min, until cheese is melted.
  • Meanwhile, to a small bowl, add sour cream, remaining lime zest and remaining lime juice. Stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper.

6
Finish and serve

  • Divide beef mixture between plates.
  • Spoon sour cream over top and sprinkle with green onions.
  • Squeeze a lime wedge over top.
