Description
Everything you love about zesty beans and rice in convenient crockpot form!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup long-grain brown rice
- 2 1/2 cups vegetable broth
- 1-15oz can black beans, drained
- 3/4 cup chunky salsa
- 1 cup frozen corn (I used Trader Joe's roasted corn)
- 1 large bell pepper, chopped
- ½ cup chopped onion
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 1/4 tsp cumin
- ½ cup shredded cheddar or Mexican blend cheese (or more, to taste)
- Avocado, for topping
Instructions
- Place all ingredients except cheese and avocado in a 5-qt crockpot. Cook on high (covered) for about 2½ hours, or until rice is cooked through and most of the liquid is absorbed.
- Turn off crock-pot. Stir in cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve with diced avocado and more salsa on top.
