  • 1/4 cup diced onion
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1 (15-ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed

  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Add the rice, water, and salt to a saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook for 15 to 18 minutes, until tender. Fluff with a fork.
  2. While the rice cooks, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook for 2 minutes.
  3. Stir in the garlic, black beans, cumin, chili powder, smoked paprika, salt, and water. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until warmed through.
  4. In another skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the bell peppers and onion.
  5. Season with garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 6 to 8 minutes, stirring often, until the vegetables are tender and lightly charred.
  6. Heat 1 teaspoon olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the kale, garlic, and a pinch of salt. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until wilted.
  7. In a small bowl, mash the avocado with lime juice, cilantro, salt, and diced red onion to make the guacamole.
  8. Divide the rice between bowls.
  9. Top with the black beans, sautéed kale, peppers and onions, and a scoop of guacamole.
