Instructions

Prep
1
  • Peel sweet potato, then quarter lengthwise. Cut into 1/4-inch quarter-moons.
  • Cut broccoli into bite-sized pieces.
  • Core, then cut pepper into 1-inch pieces.
Season veggies
2
  • Add sweet potatoes, peppers, Southwest Spice Blend and 1/2 tbsp oil to one side of a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine.
  • Add broccoli and 1/2 tbsp oil to the other side of the baking sheet.
  • Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine. (NOTE: For 4 ppl, use 2 baking sheets, separating broccoli to its own sheet, using 1 tbsp oil per sheet.)
Roast veggies and remaining prep
3
  • Roast in the middle of the oven until veggies are tender and golden-brown, 20-24 min. (NOTE: For 4 ppl, bake in the top and middle of the oven, rotating halfway through.)
  • Meanwhile, peel, then cut onion into 1/4-inch pieces.
  • Thinly slice jalapeño into 1/4-inch rounds, removing seeds for less heat. (TIP: We suggest using gloves when prepping jalapeños!)
Pickle jalapeños
4
  • Add vinegar, 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) water and a pinch of salt to a small microwavable bowl. (NOTE: This is your pickling liquid.)
  • Microwave in 15-sec. increments, stirring between each, until salt dissolves.
  • Add jalapeños, then stir to combine.
Cook pork mixture
5
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
  • When the pan is hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then pork and onions.
  • Cook, breaking up pork into smaller pieces, until onions are tender and no pink remains in pork, 4-5 min.**
  • Carefully drain and discard excess fat.
  • Add Tex-Mex Paste and 1/3 cup (1/2 cup) water. Bring to a simmer.
  • Once simmering, reduce heat to medium.
  • Cook until sauce reduces slightly, 2-4 min. Remove from heat, cover to keep warm.
Finish and serve
6
  • Divide roasted veggies between bowls.
  • Top with pork mixture.
  • Dollop with sour cream, then drizzle with chipotle sauce and sprinkle cheese over top.
  • Top each bowl with pickled jalapeño slices. (TIP: Any leftover pickled jalapeños and pickling liquid can be saved and refrigerated for up to 3 days!)
