Veggie Rice



1 medium onion, chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
1 bell pepper, chopped (I used 1/2 red and 1/2 green)
1 cup raw rice
3 tsps chili powder
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 can black beans
1 cup corn
1 can diced/stewed tomatoes
1 1/2 tomato cans of water

Saute onion, garlic, and bell pepper in 1 tbsp oil until onion is transparent. Stir in raw rice and saute until it becomes opaque. Add the diced tomatoes, water, black beans, corn and spices. Cover the pan and lower the heat to a simmer. Cook for 20 minutes (do not lift lid). After 20 minutes the rice should be cooked and veggies tender. This is a good dish on its own, but is also good in a wrap with some sour cream and cheese.
