Sauté onions and garlic in a pan until softened and fragrant.
Add black beans, cumin, and vegetable broth and allow to simmer for 5 minutes covered until beans are warmed through and the broth is reduced.
Divide rice if making for more than 1 serving
Top rice with a layer of chopped/cubed carrots, beans, and avocado.
Garnish with parsley and dress each bowl with a healthy squeeze of lime juice. Salt and pepper to taste
Enjoy!
Notes:
Nutritional Highlights:
Avocados are a great source of healthy monounsaturated fatty acids which are so important for heart health! Carrots High in beta carotene which converts to vitamin A in your body and is important for healthy skin, immune health and vision.
May swap out the brown rice for quinoa or cauliflower rice.
I sautéed sliced carrots instead of topping with shredded. 2 out of 3 kids approved.
