Preheat oven to 415 degrees F.
Place your sweet potato slices on a baking sheet. Drizzle with a little olive oil and massage to coat both sides. Sprinkle with a little kosher salt.
Place in the oven, middle rack, and roast 10-12 minutes or until firm, but tender.
Meanwhile, bring a large cast iron skillet to medium-high heat. Add ghee or oil and swirl to coat the pan.
Add garlic and move around the pan until fragrant, about 10-20 seconds.
Add onions and diced bell pepper. Sauté for 2-3 minutes, allowing onions to soften.
Add ground beef to the pan. Move around the pan until beef is cooked through, about 5-10 minutes. Drain excess grease.
Add dijon mustard, yellow mustard, ketchup, coconut aminos, kosher salt, pepper, tomato paste, chili powder, and apple cider vinegar.
Stir to combine.
Taste and adjust: if you want more sloppy joes more “saucey” simply add additional ketchup and tomato paste. Otherwise, adjust any salt or pepper, as desired.
Serving: place a few slices of roasted sweet potato to a bowl and place some of the sloppy Joe mixture next to it. Top with sliced pickles, pickled onions, and a little extra dijon mustard. Enjoy your Sloppy Joe Bowls!

Add-In: feel free to add in some diced carrots for even more fiber and a bit of crunch to your Sloppy Joe Bowls.
Spice it up: you can add in more chili powder or even some cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes if you want your Sloppy Joe Bowls spicy!
Double it: this is such a great meal to have leftovers of – we always double the recipe and eat it for lunch the next few days. These healthy Sloppy Joe Bowls are perfect for meal prep.
