How To Make These Roasted Veggie Burrito Bowls with Avocado Crema
Preheat your oven to 425. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
Chop your peppers, onion, and sweet potato into 1 inch pieces. Add them to a bowl and toss with the olive oil, garlic powder, cumin, chili powder, paprika, and salt. Spread the veggies out evenly on the baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, make the avocado crema, rice, and beans. For the cream sauce, add the avocado (peeled and pitted), coconut milk, lime juice, and salt to a bowl. Use an immersion blender to blend it up until a creamy sauce is formed. Alternatively, you can use a regular blender. Set the sauce aside until you’re ready to assemble your bowls.
Heat the black beans over the stove for 5-10 minutes until warmed through.
I love to serve this with my Coconut Cilantro Lime Rice!
How to Make Rice in the Instant Pot
If you want an easy way to make regular white rice in the Instant Pot, you can simply do equal parts rice + water (1 cup and 1 cup) and cook on high pressure for 3 minutes. Let it naturally release for 11 minutes, then fluff with a fork. All done!
Assemble your bowls! Add some rice, beans, roasted veggies, and desired toppings to your bowl, then drizzle with the avocado crema. Enjoy!
