2 tbsp beef broth

0.5 tsp garlic powder

• 1

  Peel and cube the sweet potato, then boil in a small pot of water until fork-tender, about 10-12 minutes.

  Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it up with a spatula and browning it until no pink remains.

  Stir in the tomato paste, beef broth, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper, allowing the mixture to simmer for 5 minutes until the sauce thickens.

  Drain the sweet potatoes and place them in a bowl; add the cottage cheese and mash together until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

  Transfer the beef and vegetable mixture into a small oven-safe baking dish or individual ramekin.

  Spread the sweet potato and cottage cheese mash evenly over the beef layer.
