# Directions:
01 -
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced potatoes and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown and tender. Remove the potatoes from the skillet and set aside.

Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet with the beef, cooking for about 2-3 minutes until the onion becomes translucent and fragrant.

Stir in the taco seasoning and beef broth (or water). Bring to a simmer and cook for 3-4 minutes until the mixture thickens and is well combined.
05 -
Return the cooked potatoes to the skillet, then add the corn kernels and black beans. Stir everything together and cook for another 2-3 minutes to heat through.
06 -
Taste the mixture and season with salt and pepper as needed.

To assemble the taco bowls, divide the beef and potato mixture evenly among serving bowls.

Top each bowl with shredded cheddar cheese, a dollop of sour cream, salsa, diced avocado, and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro.

Serve with lime wedges on the side and optional tortilla chips for extra crunch.
