Zucchini, Bean and Rice Skillet

This recipe originally came from here.  I adapted it to what I had on hand and how we like to eat.  This is good for a quick week night meal because it is fast and I usually have all the ingredients on hand. For a more name brand canned recipe check out the link.

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1-1/2 cups quartered lengthwise, sliced zucchini
  • 1/4 cup diced onion
  • 1/2 cup diced green bell pepper
  • 1 can Black Beans, drained, rinsed or 1 1/2 of whatever beans you have on hand, today it was a pinto, kidney, red bean mix I had in the freezer
  • 1 can (14.5 oz each) Diced Tomatoes, undrained or half a bottle of bottled tomatoes
  • 2 cups cooked brown rice
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup shredded Cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese blend

Sautee onion, bell pepper and zucchini in olive oil until tender.  Add all other ingredients except cheese.  Cook until warmed through.  Top with cheese.
