Roasted Sweet Potato, Black Bean, and Chorizo Breakfast Bowls image

These breakfast bowls are a change from the usual and are loaded with a variety of flavors and textures. Home- or store-made chorizo is best, but feel free to use your favorite brand. You may also combine the sweet potatoes, black beans, chorizo and avocados all together before topping with the egg. I like to top mine with cotija cheese, cilantro, and chipotle hot sauce.

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 tablespoon olive oil
½ teaspoon ground cumin
½ teaspoon salt
1 (15.5 ounce) can black beans, undrained
½ teaspoon ground cumin
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
1 pound fresh Mexican chorizo sausage, casing removed
1 tablespoon butter, or as needed
4 eggs
2 avocados - peeled, pitted, and sliced

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

SWEET POTATO AND BLACK BEAN RICE BOWLS



Sweet Potato and Black Bean Rice Bowls image

I like to use a shorter, stickier rice for these bowls, so it feels a little heartier. Sticky rice is mixed with lime, cilantro and jalapeño, then tossed with black beans and topped with sweet potatoes for the perfect, filling, vegan meal. It's great for meal prep, too!

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 medium orange sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
2 to 3 tablespoons liquid coconut oil
2 teaspoons ground coriander
Kosher salt
2 cups medium-grain rice, such as Calrose, rinsed until the water runs clear
1 bay leaf
2 limes, zested and juiced
1 medium jalapeño, minced
3/4 cup cilantro leaves and stems, finely minced
One 15-ounce can black beans, drained and rinsed
2 medium Haas avocados, thinly sliced
Cilantro sprigs, for garnish
Jalapeño slices, for garnish
Lime wedges, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Place the sweet potato cubes on a large sheet tray and liberally drizzle with the coconut oil, then sprinkle with the coriander and a good amount of salt. Toss and spread out into a flat, even layer. Bake for 15 minutes, toss, then bake until golden and tender, another 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, stir together the rinsed rice, 4 cups water, bay leaf and 1 teaspoon salt in a medium saucepan. Bring up to a boil over medium-high heat, cover, decrease the heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes. Remove the lid, increase the heat to medium and cook until all of the liquid has absorbed, about 5 minutes. Let sit uncovered for 5 minutes.
  • Spoon the cooked rice into a large bowl then add the lime zest and juice, jalapeño, cilantro and black beans. Toss together, then taste for seasoning and add more salt if needed.
  • To serve, scoop some of the rice and bean mixture into a shallow bowl, then top with some of the roasted sweet potatoes, sliced avocado, cilantro sprigs, sliced jalapeños and a lime wedge.

Tips:

  • Utilize Leftover Rice: If you have leftover rice, this recipe is a great way to use it up and create a delicious and nutritious meal.
  • No-Cook Black Beans: For convenience, use canned or pre-cooked black beans. Alternatively, you can cook dried black beans in advance and store them in the refrigerator or freezer for later use.
  • Roasted Sweet Potatoes: Roasting sweet potatoes intensifies their natural sweetness and adds a slightly caramelized flavor. You can roast the sweet potatoes in the oven or on a grill.
  • Customize Your Bowl: Feel free to add other toppings and ingredients to your rice bowl, such as diced avocado, chopped cilantro, crumbled feta cheese, or a dollop of sour cream.
  • Meal Prep: These rice bowls are perfect for meal prep. Simply assemble the bowls ahead of time and store them in the refrigerator. When you're ready to eat, just reheat and enjoy.

Conclusion:

The black bean, sweet potato, and rice bowls are a delicious, nutritious, and versatile meal that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
