Method

1. Preheat oven to 410°F (210°C). Cut sweet¹ potato into 2 cm (¾-inch) cubes (peel optional), toss with oil, cumin, smoked paprika, and half the salt. Roast in a single layer for 25 minutes, stirring once, until tender with caramelized edges.

2. Rinse beans and corn, draining well. Thinly slice red⁵ onion into half-moons, chop cilantro⁶, and tear romaine¹² into large pieces.

3. For the dressing, whisk yogurt with half the lime⁷ juice and a pinch of salt. Slice avocado⁴ into wedges and drizzle with remaining lime juice.

4. Arrange romaine¹² on a plate, then layer warm sweet¹ potato, beans, corn, avocado⁴, and onion. Drizzle with dressing and sprinkle with cilantro⁶.
