For the Bowl

  • 2 medium sweet potatoes cubed into ½ inch pieces
  • 3 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil divided
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 lb. ground beef
  • 1 Tablespoons tomato paste
  • 2 cups cottage cheese

  • ½ teaspoon oregano

  • ¼ teaspoon onion
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Toss the sweet potatoes with 2 Tablespoons of olive oil, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Spread them in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook at 400°F for 10–13 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until tender and golden on the edges. Work in batches if necessary.
