Ingredients
- 1 cup brown rice cooked
- 1 cup black beans cooked or canned
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- ⅛ teaspoon sea salt or to taste
- ¼ cup corn
- 1 avocado halved
For the Salad
- 2 roma tomatoes diced
- ¼ cup red onion finely chopped
- ½ cup fresh cilantro chopped
- 2 teaspoons white wine vinegar
- 2 teaspoons lime juice
- salt + pepper to taste
Instructions
- Add the black beans, all your seasonings, plus ¼ cup of water to a large skillet. Mix well and heat over medium heat for about 5-6 minutes to heat the beans and absorb the seasoning and most of the water.
- Meanwhile, combine all the salad ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Set aside.
- Divide the components between your two bowls and garnish with extra cilantro and lime wedges if you'd like.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- For no cilantro: Try it with fresh parsley, dill, or another herb you enjoy.
- Switch up the brown rice for wild rice, quinoa, barley, farro, or another grain you have available.
- For less calories, use cauliflower rice instead of brown rice.
- For corn-free, just omit or add more tomato salad or another veggie.
- Swap the black beans for brown lentils or chickpeas if you prefer.
