Easy lunches are my bag! (pun intended). This one can be packed to go. If I don’t have any leftover brown rice handy, I’ll use Minute Ready to Serve Brown Rice.
It requires only 1 minute in the microwave. So, put your beans, corn, salsa, and other toppings in one container, pack a rice cup with it and assemble at work or school (microwave needed). If leftover rice is used, a microwave is not needed but I recommend keeping the rice separate from the toppings until it is time to eat.

Your choice: cherry tomatoes, avocado, lite sour cream.
Divide rice between 2 bowls. Place 1/2 cup beans, 1/2 cup corn, and 1/4 cup cheese on top of each rice bowl. Top with your choice of salsa and toppings. Enjoy!
