In same large bowl, toss together the sweet potato, chili powder, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, kosher salt, black pepper and 2 tablespoon olive oil. Spread sweet potatoes on the other side of the baking sheet in an even layer.
Bake for 35-40 minutes until the sweet potatoes are tender and caramelized on the edges. Flip the sweet potatoes, peppers and onions halfway through.
While sweet potatoes are roasting, cook rice according to package instructions. Mix the rice with the salsa verde. Set aside.
Assemble the burrito bowls. Add rice, sweet potatoes, peppers, onion, black beans, corn, tomatoes and guacamole. Top with some cheese, lime and cilantro.
Notes
Be consistent in dicing the vegetables so they cook evenly.
If you don't want to make your own fajita seasoning, you can easily buy one at the grocery store.
You know the sweet potatoes are cooked once they are tender.
You can control the level of the spice depending on the salsa you use to mix in the rice.
Leftovers will store well in the fridge for 2-3 days in an air-tight container or be frozen for 3 months.
