Begin by cooking your rice as you would normally. I cooked mine in the Ninja Foodi. Once done add the lime juice and cilantro and mix. You can cook the rest of the food while the rice is cooking.
To make the black bean pico de gallo simply dice the tomato and chop the corn. Add all ingredients together in a bowl and mix. Set aside.
To make the chipotle vegetables: Slice the onion and pepper into strips. Add to a sauté pan with the water/vegetable broth. Next add the chipotle peppers and adobo sauce. Once peppers and onions are cooked add the zucchini and cook for 5 minutes.
To serve chop the lettuce and place that as the base. Next add the rice, vegetables and black bean pico. Top with avocado and extra lime juice (if you like), and enjoy!
