I didn’t have black beans, so I used kidney beans. Still turned out fine!
This was so good! I loved the spice mix, it really brought out the flavors! Definitely making this again.
I’m glad you loved it! The spice mix really is the star of the show. Makes veggies taste so much better! 😊
I thought it was good, but a bit too spicy for my kids. Next time, I will use less chipotle powder.
too many greens for me! wth is a chipotle anyway? I just used ketchup, lol.
Delicious!!! 😍
I tried this without the beans because I’m allergic. Still turned out great! 🙂
Simple and quick recipe! Perfect for a busy weeknight. Thumbs up from my family!
This is amazing! So much flavor, and so easy to make. My family loved it!
Mine came out all mushy. Probably cooked it too long or something. Will try again.
This recipe changed my life! Very filling and healthy. Cooking it again for sure!
I skipped the avocado and cilantro. Didnt notice much difference, lol.
Not sure about the chipotle powder. It made it too spicy for me. Maybe I should have used less.
I think the chipotle powder is great! Just use a little less if you’re sensitive to spice. It’s all about balance!
The instructions were clear, but I still burned my veggies 😩. Gotta practice more.
Practice makes perfect! Don’t give up, it’ll get easier. 🍽️
Idk, maybe I’m just not a fan of veggies. I didn’t like it much. 🙁
I tried making this but it didn’t turn out as expected… Maybe I added too much cumin? Not sure.
Nothin like a good veggie fajita! Used quinoa instead of rice and it was perfect.
Yum!
I made this last night, and it was soo good!! I’m definitely making it again. 😋
Yum!!! I threw in some leftover chicken and it was delish! Thanks for this!
This is the best veggie bowl ever! So flavorful and easy to make.
