Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Arrange the sliced bell peppers and red onion on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, then sprinkle with cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss everything together ensuring the veggies are well-coated with the oil and spices.
- Roast the vegetables in the oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they're tender and have a slight char. This caramelization will add a beautiful depth of flavor.
- While the vegetables are roasting, prepare the other components. Cook your brown rice and black beans if they're not already done. Slice your avocado and halve your cherry tomatoes.
- Once the veggies are done, assemble your bowl. Start with a base of brown rice, then layer on the black beans, roasted vegetables, corn, cherry tomatoes, and avocado slices. Sprinkle chopped cilantro on top.
- Finish by drizzling over the juice of one lime. Season with additional salt and pepper if needed, then give everything a good toss to combine.
- Serve your vibrant Veggie Burrito Bowl as is, or add your favorite toppings. Salsa, sour cream, or shredded cheese would all be delicious additions. Enjoy!
