Fiesta Lime Rice

From Skinny Taste

Ok all you new and newly returned vegans out there. I found this recipe and decided to give it a go. If you've ever been to Chipotle it tastes kind of like their burrito bowl sans meat. We did eat ours with some yummy rotisserie chicken, but you don't have to. It's perfectly filling and nutritious all on its own. It would probably taste great on a tortilla too - Mark actually preferred his burrito style with some salsa and Greek yogurt.

Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups rice, cooked (I used brown rice)
3/4-1 cup black beans, drained
3/4 cup corn (canned or frozen, doesn't matter)
1 tomato, chopped
2 tbsp cilantro, chopped
1-2 scallions, chopped (I didn't have any so I just chopped up a bit of sweet onion and it was fine)
1/3 bell pepper, chopped (optional)
1 tbsp fresh squeezed lime juice
salt
Any toppings: avocado, cheese, meat, salsa, greek yogurt, tortilla, etc

Cook rice, chop all ingredients, dump in a bowl, and mix. Couldn't get much easier than that.
