Ingredients
- 1 can of beans drained and rinsed

- 1 lb leftover taco meat
- 2 cups fresh broccoli florets or your favorite vegetables to roast in the oven with olive oil and salt

- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the taco meat and cook until warm, stirring occasionally to break up any clumps of meat.

- Add corn to the baking sheet with the vegetables, toss to combine, and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes or until roasted to desired tenderness. Be sure not to overcook so the veggies don’t burn!
- Assemble bowls by dividing the rice, beans, taco meat, vegetables, corn and optional toppings.
