Beans, rice, spice, brightly coloured veggies – this recipe has it all. It’s quick and
satisfying, perfect for a weeknight and can be tweaked to your heart’s content. You can use the filling to make this veggie burrito bowl/taco salad, but it makes a great wrap, dip or nacho topping as well. Or go simple and have it straight up as beans n’ rice. You can even leave out the rice entirely and make this a grain-free meal. Freeze any leftovers for an even quicker weeknight meal later on.
