Zaba Bowl

While we were in Vegas I went to this place called Zabas and got a "Zaba bowl" it was sooo delicious that I decided to try and make my own tonight which turned out sooo bomb!!!

Ingredients:

(this served two people so adapt to your family)

1 sweet potatoe, peeled and cut into little half moons

1 uncooked cup of brown rice 

1 can of black beans, rinsed and drained

2 skinless chicken breast cut into little pieces 

half a yellow onion cut into half moons 

1 bell pepper (any color would work) sliced into thin pieces

The brown rice is what takes the longest (45 mins) So I would cook that first-just follow the instructions on the box. While that's cooking preheat the oven to 350. Toss the sweet potatoes in Olive oil and salt, pepper and garlic salt (or whatever seasoning you prefer) Bake in the oven for 30-40 mins depending on how soft you like yours. While the sweet potatoes and rice is cooking, cook your chicken. I put some fresh lime juice on mine with some salt and pepper and cooked it on the stovetop with a little bit of Olive oil,but you really can cook it however you like or even use leftover chicken from earlier in the week. Toss the onions and peppers in the same pan you cooked the chicken in. When everything is done you'll put the rice on the bottom, black beans, cooked chicken, sweet potatoes and onions and peppers!! yummmm! I squeezed a little bit of lime all over mine. Also makes great leftovers for a healthy lunch!
