Spicy Black Beans and Rice image

I like to use 3 differently colored bell peppers if I can, then I tell my youngest that we are having rainbow beans. I start the rice in my rice cooker before I start chopping veggies. They are a good way to use up those veggies in your fridge that need using! I like to chop enough veggies for several batches, then freeze them for future use.

I'm not a big fan of spicy food, so I used less cayenne pepper than the recipe called for. It was still plenty flavorful.

I'm a vegetarian, so I made this recipe with vegetable broth instead of chicken broth. It turned out great!
