Recipe: One Pot Bean Bowl

It's been over a year since I started doing Meatless Mondays and I've really enjoyed the challenge of cooking veggie meals that don't involve the Holy Trinity (Pizza, Pasta and Potatoes!) Sometimes I spend hours making homemade falafels and hummus, and some days I just need a quick, easy meal after a long day at work. This is one of those recipes. I literally chucked some tins and spice in a pot and called it dinner. 

One Pot Bean Bowl



Tomato & Bean Sauce:
  • 1 tin chopped tomato 
  • 1 tin black beans
  •  5 sundried tomatoes, chopped
  •  1 tsp tomato paste
  • 1 tsp chopped garlic
  •  1 fresh chili, chopped
  • 1 tsp cumin powder
  • 1 tsp coriander powder
  • 1 tsp sugar 
  • handful of fresh basil and coriander, chopped

Method:
  • Put all the ingredients in a small pot and bring to the boil. 
  • Once boiling, turn down the heat and simmer for 15mins, stirring occasionally. 
  • That's it! Serve with brown rice, lettuce and avocado.
