1
Cook the Rice
In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Add 1 cup of rice, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 18 minutes, or until rice is tender and water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork.
2
Prepare the Beans
In a small saucepan, heat the drained black beans over medium heat until warmed through, about 5 minutes. Stir occasionally.
3
Prepare the Vegetables
Wash and slice the cucumber and carrots into bite-sized pieces.
4
Assemble the Plate
On a plate, serve a portion of rice, a scoop of black beans, and arrange the cucumber and carrot slices. Add the juice box on the side.
