Prepare the Potatoes
Preheat your oven to 450°F.

In a large bowl, toss the Yukon potatoes with smoked paprika, cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano powder, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
Spread the potatoes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper in a single layer and spray with oil. Roast for 25-30 minutes, until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy.
Cook the Taco Meat
While the potatoes are roasting, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground meat and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon.
Add the crushed garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the paprika, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, water, salt and pepper. You can also sub for your favorite taco seasoning. Simmer for 3-4 minutes until the meat is well-coated with the spices and slightly saucy.
Prepare the Pico de Gallo
In a medium bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, chopped onion, jalapeno, cilantro, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Mix well and set aside.
Make the Guacamole
In a separate bowl, mash the avocados until smooth. Stir in the pico de gallo, crushed garlic, salt, and pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Assemble the Taco Bowls
In a large bowl, start with a base of roasted potatoes. Top with a generous scoop of taco meat, followed by cheese, sour cream, pico de gallo and guacamole.
