Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 1 medium bell pepper, diced
- 1 medium zucchini, diced
- 1 15-ounce can black beans, drained and rinsed
- 2 cups cooked brown rice or quinoa
- 2 tablespoons taco seasoning
- 1 cup water
- 2 cups romaine lettuce, chopped
- 1 medium fresh tomato, diced
- 0.25 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 large sliced avocado
- 1 large lime, cut into wedges
- 0.5 cup dairy-free salsa or hot sauce (optional)
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and bell pepper to the skillet. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften.
Stir in the diced zucchini and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
Add the black beans, taco seasoning, and water to the skillet. Mix well and let simmer for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender and the flavors meld together.
While the vegetable mixture is cooking, prepare the base of the taco bowls by dividing the cooked brown rice or quinoa equally among four bowls.
Layer the chopped romaine lettuce on top of the rice or quinoa in each bowl.
Spoon the warm vegetable and bean mixture on top of the lettuce layer.
Add fresh diced tomato, chopped cilantro, and sliced avocado to each bowl as toppings.
Serve each bowl with a lime wedge for squeezing and, if desired, a drizzle of dairy-free salsa or hot sauce.
Enjoy immediately!
