This Bowl di Riso con Edamame e Fagioli Neri is not only a burst of flavors but also a powerhouse of nutrition—perfect for a wholesome dinner tonight!

1

Begin by rinsing 1 cup of brown rice under cold water. Add it to a medium pot with 2 cups of water. Bring it to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it simmer for about 30 minutes or until tender.

2

While the rice is cooking, prepare your other ingredients. In a skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Chop 1 red bell pepper and 2 stalks of green onion, then add them to the skillet. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the pepper softens.

3

Add 1 cup of edamame (thawed if frozen) and 1 can of drained and rinsed black beans into the skillet. Sprinkle in 1 teaspoon of cumin, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir well to combine everything together. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes until heated through.

4

Once the rice is cooked, fluff it with a fork and divide it into serving bowls. Top each bowl with the sautéed mixture from the skillet.

5

Squeeze the juice of 1 lime over the top and garnish with extra green onions if desired. Serve warm and enjoy your Bowl di Riso con Edamame e Fagioli Neri!
