Vegan Bowl Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Cilantro Lime White Rice

    Cook the white rice according to package instructions. Once cooked, fluff with a fork and mix in chopped cilantro and lime juice to taste. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Cook the Primavera Veggies

    In a skillet, heat a little oil over medium heat. Add diced bell pepper, zucchini, and carrot. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes or until veggies are tender. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  3. 3

    Heat the Black Beans

    If using canned black beans, rinse and drain them. Heat them in a small saucepan over medium heat until warmed through, about 3-5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Corn Salsa

    If using fresh corn, grill or boil it until tender. If using canned corn, simply drain it. Mix with lime juice, salt, and chopped cilantro to taste.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Bowl

    In a serving bowl, layer cilantro lime rice, black beans, sautéed veggies, corn salsa, salsa fresca, and shredded lettuce. Serve with tortilla on the side.
