  • 2 cups cooked brown rice
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 cup canned black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup corn kernels (fresh or frozen)

  • 1/2 tsp cumin
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika

  • 1 avocado, sliced (optional)
  • fresh cilantro for garnish
  • lime wedges for serving

Equipment

  • skillet
  • spatula
  • knife
  • cutting board

Method
 

  1. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add diced bell pepper and sauté for 3–4 minutes until slightly soft.
  3. Stir in black beans, corn, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 4–5 minutes.
  4. Spoon the mixture over warm brown rice.

Notes

Swap brown rice with quinoa or cauliflower rice for variety. Add shredded chicken or tofu for extra protein. Adjust spices to taste — chili powder or jalapeños add more heat.
