Course Main Course

Ingredients
  

  • 1 whole sweet potatoe
  • 1 tbsp olive oil plus more for roasting sweet potatoe
  • 1 whole white or yellow onion
  • 1 whole red bell pepper
  • 1 whole zucchini julienned
  • 1 tsp garlic powder Or 2 cloves of garlic
  • 1 tbsp taco seasoning
  • 1 whole avocado Or homemade guacamole
  • 2 cups white rice
  • 1 cup fire roasted corn Trader Joe's - Optional
  • 1 can black beans
  • To Taste Salt and Pepper

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees fahrenheit
  • Cover sweet potato in olive oil and put it on a baking sheet, sprinkle with salt. Bake for 1 hour or until fork tender.
  • Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a pan and add onions. Sweat onions at medium heat for 3 minutes then add red bell pepper and zucchini. Add garlic, taco seasoning, and salt.
  • While vegetables are sautéing, bring 2 cups rice and 3 cups water to a boil. Then, cover and slow to a simmer.
  • Sauté vegetables until onions are golden brown and translucent. Add frozen corn.
  • Heat black beans in a small pot over medium heat. I like to keep some of the bean “juice/water” in with them to keep the beans from drying out.
  • To assemble the bowl, add rice to the bottom then pile up with fajita veggies, black beans, and sweet potato. Top with avocado or homemade guacamole.
