Preheat the oven to 400°F. On a half-sheet pan, toss the sweet potato cubes with two-thirds of the oil, half the salt, and the black pepper. Spread in a single layer and roast, flipping once halfway through, until tender and browned at the edges, about 25 minutes.
While the potatoes roast, heat the remaining oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the ground turkey and cook, breaking it into small pieces with a spoon, until no longer pink, about 6 minutes. Done when no longer pink, 165°F.
Add the black beans, taco seasoning, water, and the remaining salt to the skillet. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until the liquid has mostly evaporated and the beans are heated through, about 5 minutes.
Place the mixed greens in a wide bowl. Top with the roasted sweet potatoes and the turkey and bean mixture. Drizzle the lime juice over the top and garnish with chopped cilantro.
