Ingredients
  

1 cup cooked brown rice (or quinoa)

1 cup black beans, drained and rinsed

1 cup corn kernels (frozen or fresh)

1 red bell pepper, diced

1 zucchini, diced

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 teaspoon chili powder

1 teaspoon cumin

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and pepper, to taste

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 avocado, sliced

Fresh cilantro, for garnish

Lime wedges, for serving

Optional toppings: shredded cheese, sour cream, salsa

Instructions
 

Preheat the Air Fryer: Start by preheating your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.

    Prepare the Veggies: In a bowl, combine the diced bell pepper, zucchini, corn, and cherry tomatoes. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss everything together until well-coated.

      Air Fry the Vegetables: Place the seasoned veggie mixture in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 10-12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until the vegetables are tender and slightly charred.

        Assemble the Bowl: In serving bowls, layer the cooked brown rice (or quinoa) at the bottom, then top with air-fried veggies. Add black beans, and finally, top with avocado slices.

          Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle fresh cilantro over the bowls, and serve with lime wedges on the side. Add optional toppings like shredded cheese, sour cream, or salsa as desired.

            Enjoy your meal! Relish these quick and nutritious burrito bowls with friends and family.
