Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Dice the russet potatoes into bite-sized cubes and place them on the sheet.
  3. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
  4. Toss everything to ensure each potato piece is well-coated and ready for roasting.
  5. Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through.
  6. Cook until the potatoes are golden and crispy on the outside yet tender on the inside.
  7. While the potatoes roast, heat a large skillet over medium heat and add ground beef or turkey.
  8. Cook until browned, about 6-8 minutes, and drain excess fat.
  9. Add chili powder, cumin, and chopped red onion to the skillet and sauté for about 5 minutes.
  10. Mix in black beans and corn kernels, heating together for another 3-4 minutes.
  11. To assemble, layer crispy potatoes in each bowl, followed by the meat mixture.
  12. Top each with shredded cheese, cherry tomatoes, avocado, and cilantro.
  13. Serve immediately with lime wedges and sour cream on the side.
