Instructions
In a large pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sweet potatoes and cook for a couple minutes. Stir and then add in the bell peppers, garlic and rice and cook an additional 2 minutes (stirring constantly).
Add in the black beans, corn, tomatoes with green chiles, salt, cumin and chili powder. Pour in the broth and then bring to a light boil. Cover the pan and reduce heat to low. Cook for an additional 15 minutes, or until the rice is all the way cooked.
When rice is done, S&P to taste. Top with your favorite toppings.
Notes
For variation, you could also add cooked chicken to this recipe. You can substitute brown rice, however only use 3/4 cup. You'll also need to cook an additional 10 minutes.We like to serve over lettuce in a salad bowl and eat with tortilla chips. You can also use this mix to top over nachos or place in a tortilla to make burritos. We love using the leftovers to make stuffed bell peppers as well.
