This Mediterranean Ground Beef Potato Bowl is what happens when nachos grow up and move to the Mediterranean. Instead of chips, we roast crispy Yukon potatoes. Instead of taco seasoning, we use oregano, garlic, and paprika. Then we pile on juicy ground beef, feta, olives, fresh herbs, and a drizzle of garlic yogurt sauce.

Tomato paste: Adds depth and richness without needing a long simmer.
Cherry tomatoes: Fresh contrast that keeps the bowl from feeling heavy.
Kalamata olives: Salty, briny pop that makes everything taste brighter.

FAQ
If they’re crowded, they steam instead of roast. Spread them out and don’t flip too early.
You can, but they’re starchier and may break apart more easily.
A whipped feta sauce would also pair nicely.
