Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 large sweet potato, peeled and diced
  • 1 red onion, diced
  • 1.5 lbs salmon filets
  • 3-4 cups cooked rice
  • 1 can black beans, heated
  • 1 can corn, heated
  • avocado, diced or sliced
  • fresh cilantro, chopped
  • Olive or avocado oil

For the sauce:

  • 1 cup sour cream
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • Tabasco, to taste

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400° F. Make the Tex Mex rub by adding seasonings to a small bowl and mix to combine.
  • Place diced red onion and sweet potato on a large sheet tray. Drizzle with olive oil then sprinkle 2-3 teaspoons of Tex Mex seasoning rub over. Place in oven and roast for 15 minutes.
  • Place filets on a large cutting board. Pat dry with a paper towel. Drizzle with olive oil then sprinkle remaining Tex Mex seasoning rub all over.
  • Remove veggies from oven and push to the edges of sheet tray. Place salmon filets in the middle in a single layer. Place back in oven and cook until salmon begins to flake with a fork, about 15 more minutes (depending on thickness of filets).
  • While salmon is baking, make the sauce by combining sour cream, lime juice, chili powder, salt and Tabasco in a small bowl or squirt bottle.
  • Assemble bowls by filling with rice then top with salmon, sweet potatoes, red onion, black beans, corn, avocado, cilantro and a drizzle of sour cream sauce.

Notes

  1. Plain white rice can be replaced with: taco rice, cilantro lime rice, brown rice or riced cauliflower
  2. Additional topping ideas: Fresh diced tomato, pinto beans, red cabbage, jalapenos, crispy tortilla strips, pickled red onion (in place of roasted), spinach, fresh diced mango
