A vibrant and flavorful bowl featuring smoky salmon, roasted sweet potatoes, black beans, fresh cilantro, and a tangy lime crema.

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound skinless salmon fillets
  • 2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 (15-ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 cup cooked quinoa

For the Cilantro-Lime Crema:

  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss diced sweet potatoes with olive oil, smoked paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and slightly browned.
  2. While the sweet potatoes are roasting, season salmon fillets with salt and pepper. Place on a separate baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until cooked through.
  3. To make the cilantro-lime crema, combine Greek yogurt, cilantro, lime juice, garlic, and salt in a small bowl. Mix well and refrigerate until ready to serve.
  4. Assemble bowls by layering quinoa, roasted sweet potatoes, black beans, and flaked salmon. Top with cilantro-lime crema and enjoy!
