Black & Gold Rice & Beans

In this colorful rendition of the classic pairing of rice and beans, black beans are combined with white rice, red and green peppers, red tomatoes and golden sweet potatoes, corn and Cheddar.

2 cups water
2/3 cup rice
1/3 cup minced scallions
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 tsp grated lemon zest
1/4 tsp salt
1 TB olive oil
1 medium red onion, minced
1 large red bell pepper, finely diced
1 large green bell pepper, finely diced
1/3 cup minced cilantro
1 tsp minced fresh jalapeño pepper
1/2 tsp cumin
1 large sweet potato (12 ounces), peeled and cut into 1/2" chunks
11/2 cups chopped tomatoes
2 cups cooked (canned) black beans, drained
11/2 cups frozen corn kernels, thawed
1/4 cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
Prep Time: 30 minutes

In a medium covered saucepan, bring 11/2 cups of the water to a boil. Add rice, scallions, garlic, lemon zest, and salt. Return to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer, cover and cook until rice is tender, about 17 minutes.

Meanwhile, in large nonstick saucepan or Dutch oven, heat oil over medium heat. Add onion and cook, stirring frequently, until tender, about five minutes. Stir in red and green bell peppers, cilantro, jalapeño pepper, and cumin; cover and cook, stirring frequently, until vegetables are tender, about five minutes.

Stir in sweet potato and remaining 1/2 cup water; cover and cook until potato is almost soft, about seven minutes. Stir in tomatoes and black beans, and cook, uncovered, until potato is tender and flavors have blended, about two minutes. Stir in corn and cook until heated through, about two minutes.

Serve bean mixture over rice, topped with Cheddar cheese. Serves 4.

If you get one of those blue cans of Goya Black Beans they have an absolutely awesome recipe on the back, it's one of my favourite dishes

It'd be easier if you let me know what you did already.
