Place the sweet potatoes in a small pot and cover with the water and half the salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to medium and simmer for 12 to 15 minutes until very tender. Done when tender when pierced with a fork.
While the potatoes simmer, heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and onion. Cook for 5 to 6 minutes, breaking the meat up with a spoon, until the beef is browned and the onions are soft. Done when browned and opaque, 160°F.
Stir the green beans, garlic powder, black pepper, and the remaining salt into the skillet with the beef. Reduce heat to medium, cover, and cook for 5 to 6 minutes until the beans are tender-bright.
Drain the sweet potatoes and return them to the pot. Mash with a potato masher or fork until smooth.
