Instructions
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onion and diced bell pepper, sauté until softened.
Add rice to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently.
Pour in vegetable broth, tomato sauce, cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a boil.
Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes, until rice is cooked and liquid is absorbed.
Stir in black beans, corn, and shredded cheese. Cover and cook for another 5 minutes until cheese melts.
Garnish with cilantro and hot sauce, if desired. Serve hot.
Optionally, add additional toppings as preferred.
