Preheat the oven to 400°F. On a half-sheet pan, toss the sweet potato cubes with the olive oil, half the salt, and half the pepper. Spread them in a single layer and roast for 15 minutes. Stir or flip the cubes and roast for 10 to 15 minutes more until a fork slides in easily and the edges are browned.
While the potatoes roast, heat a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and onion. Cook, breaking the meat up with a spoon, for 6 to 8 minutes until the beef is browned and the onion is translucent. Done when browned and opaque in the center, 160°F.
Stir in the garlic, chili powder, cumin, and the remaining salt and pepper. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Add the spinach and stir for 1 to 2 minutes until just wilted. Remove from the heat.
Place the roasted sweet potatoes in a bowl. Top with the beef and spinach mixture. Squeeze the lime juice over the top and garnish with sliced avocado.
