Ingredients

Method
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Pierce sweet potatoes with a fork and bake for 25-30 minutes until tender.
While potatoes bake, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season ground beef with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
Cook beef for 6-8 minutes, breaking it apart with a spoon, until browned and cooked through. Set aside.
Steam or roast broccoli florets for 5-7 minutes until tender-crisp and bright green.
Mix mayonnaise with sriracha to create spicy mayo. Adjust heat to taste.
Cut baked sweet potatoes in half lengthwise and fluff the flesh with a fork.
Assemble bowls: place sweet potato halves in bowls, top with cottage cheese, cooked beef, and crispy broccoli.
Drizzle with spicy mayo and garnish with fresh chives. Serve immediately.

Tips & variations
Perfect Sweet Potato
Pierce sweet potatoes all over with a fork before baking to prevent bursting. They're done when easily pierced with a knife.
Crispy Broccoli Secret
For extra crispy broccoli, pat completely dry after steaming and toss with a little olive oil and salt before serving.
Make-Ahead Magic
Bake sweet potatoes in batches on Sunday. They keep in the fridge for 5 days and reheat beautifully in the microwave.
Vegetarian Version
Replace the ground beef with seasoned black beans, lentils, or crumbled tofu. Add some hemp seeds for extra protein.
Mediterranean Twist
Swap the beef for grilled chicken, use Greek yogurt instead of cottage cheese, and add cucumber, cherry tomatoes, and a drizzle of tzatziki.
