Ingredients
  

For the potatoes
  • 2 large potatoes (your choice: russet or sweet) You can peel them if preferred.
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon taco seasoning Make sure it’s a spice mix without any prohibited ingredients.
For the bowl

  • 1 cup corn Canned, frozen, or fresh.
  • 1 avocado, diced
  • 1 cup salsa Your preferred flavor.
  • 1 lime, cut into wedges For serving.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by washing and peeling (if preferred) your potatoes. Cut them into small, bite-sized cubes to ensure they cook evenly.
  2. In a pot, bring water to a boil. Add the cubed potatoes and cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until fork-tender.
  3. Once cooked, drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle the taco seasoning, and toss until well coated.
Cooking
  1. In a separate skillet over medium heat, combine the black beans and corn. Stir occasionally until heated through—about 5 minutes.
Assembly
  1. In serving bowls, layer the seasoned potatoes, followed by the black beans and corn mixture. Top with diced avocado, salsa, and fresh cilantro.
  2. Serve with lime wedges alongside for zest, and enjoy your Soft Potato Taco Bowl!

Notes

You can substitute toppings like grilled chicken, ground turkey, or plant-based proteins. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-5 days or freeze individual portions for up to 2 months. Reheat in the microwave or in a skillet, adding a splash of water if needed.
